The leader of the United Nations made an appeal for financial support on Friday for the struggling UN agency that assists Palestinian refugees in Gaza and other parts of the Middle East.
He accused Israel of issuing orders that force Palestinians to move through a landscape of destruction and death.
The Secretary-General highlighted the funding gap faced by the UNRWA and expressed confidence that there will be enough new money to keep the agency running until the end of September.
UNRWA provides essential services to millions of Palestinian refugees, and there are urgent appeals for additional funding to support their operations.
The UN chief also criticized Israel's military offensive in Gaza, describing the level of fighting and devastation as incomprehensible and inexcusable.
He emphasized the critical lifeline that UNRWA provides to Palestinian refugees and the importance of continued financial support for their work.
