UN officials described Gaza as ?hell on earth? where ?a child is killed every 10 minutes?
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that „far too many“ Palestinians have died in Israel’s retaliatory campaign against Hamas militants in Gaza, as he urged for civilian deaths and suffering to be minimized.
„Much more needs to be done to protect civilians and to make sure that humanitarian assistance reaches them,“ the top US diplomat told reporters in New Delhi on Friday, as he wrapped up his diplomatic tour of the Middle East and Asia.
„Far too many Palestinians have been killed, far too many have suffered these past weeks, and we want to do everything possible to prevent harm to them and to maximize the assistance that gets to them.“
The US has been trying to convince Israel to introduce longer „humanitarian pauses,“ and has come up with additional proposals on how to better protect civilians, although Blinken did not elaborate on those discussions.
