UN Chief Welcomes Historic Gaza Deal
United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has welcomed the announcement of a new agreement to secure a ceasefire and the release of hostages in Gaza, based on a proposal by U.S. President Donald Trump. This fresh deal aims to halt the violence and ease the humanitarian crisis that has gripped the region.
Speaking on social media platform X, Guterres urged all parties to "abide fully by the terms of the agreement." He stressed that all hostages must be released in a dignified manner and that a permanent ceasefire must be secured. "The fighting must stop once & for all," he said, calling for immediate and unimpeded entry of humanitarian supplies and essential commercial materials into Gaza. 🌍✌️
The secretary-general reaffirmed the UN’s commitment to supporting the full implementation of the deal. Efforts will ramp up to deliver sustained and principled humanitarian relief, while planning for recovery and reconstruction in Gaza. 🏥🚧
For many, this feels like the ultimate peace "level up"—a game-changer in the making. 🎮✨
Looking ahead, Guterres urged stakeholders to seize this moment and work toward a credible political path that ends the occupation and recognizes the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people. This vision of a two-state solution could pave the way for Israelis and Palestinians to live side by side in peace and security. 🤝🕊️
