UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called on Israel and Gaza to end hostilities, APA reports.
"Out of respect for the spirit of Eid, I appeal for an immediate de-escalation and cessation of hostilities in Gaza and Israel," Guterres relayed in a late Thursday tweet. "Too many innocent civilians have already died."
"This conflict can only increase radicalization and extremism in the whole region," he underscored.
