UN chief renews call for immediate ceasefire in Gaza

Aug 29, 2025

New York [US], August 29: UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Thursday reiterated his call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in the Gaza war as he condemned what he described as an "endless catalogue of horrors" in the strip.
"Gaza is piled with rubble, piled with bodies, and piled with examples of what may be serious violations of international law," Guterres said Thursday.
"The levels of death and destruction in Gaza are without parallel in recent times. Famine is no longer a looming possibility -- it is a present-day catastrophe. People are dying from hunger. Families are being torn apart by displacement and despair," he added.
He called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire and the release of all Israeli captives.
