On Wednesday, on the second day of the World Economic Forum in Davos, the Secretary General of the United Nations called on Israel and Hamas to immediately declare a humanitarian ceasefire. He warned that the parties involved “ignore international law, violate the Geneva Convention and even violate the United Nations Charter.” “The world stands by while civilians, mostly women and children, are killed, maimed, bombed, forced from their homes and denied access to humanitarian aid,” Guterres said. “I reiterate my call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza and a process that leads to a lasting peace for Israel and the Palestinians based on a two-state solution,” he added.
