UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said that hungry people in Gaza seeking food must not face a “death sentence” as controversy swirls around a new US and Israeli-backed distribution system, AFP reports.
“People are being killed simply trying to feed themselves and their families. The search for food must never be a death sentence,” Guterres told reporters, without explicitly naming the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, whose operations have led to near-daily reports of Israeli forces firing on people desperate to get food.
