UN chief Guterres ‘shocked’ by Israeli attack on ambulance

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres was “shocked” by an Israeli attack on an ambulance at a hospital in the Gaza Strip on Friday. Fifteen people were killed and more than sixty were injured, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent.

“The images of bodies lying on the street outside the hospital are harrowing,” Guterres said of the attack. He says he has “not forgotten the terrorist attacks by Hamas in Israel,” but “at the same time, civilians, including women and children, in Gaza have been under siege for almost a month, denied aid, killed and bombed.”

The Israeli military confirmed the attack on the ambulance, saying Hamas used it to transport fighters and weapons.
