The UN Security Council must act immediately to end the Gaza war, urged France’s UN envoy. Stressing the urgency of a ceasefire during Ramadan, securing hostage release, and ensuring full humanitarian access to Gaza, he called for immediate action within the next 24 to 48 hours. He criticized the Council’s limited humanitarian resolutions and urged it to fulfill its responsibility without delay. The conflict, triggered by a Hamas attack in October 2023, has caused immense casualties, internal displacement, and infrastructure damage in Gaza, with Israel facing accusations of genocide at the International Court of Justice.
