Martin Griffiths also noted on Wednesday that “the world appears unable or unwilling to act to stop the war in the Gaza Strip.” “The other parties in Gaza must agree to a ceasefire because this is the only way to send humanitarian aid,” the UN Deputy Secretary-General further explained. Griffiths also noted that failure to act now to stop the war in Gaza will have consequences that will extend far beyond the region, as this is a global crisis. It should be noted that to date, the number of martyrs of the Gaza war has reached 8,796 people, 3,648 of whom are children, 2,290 are women, and another 22,219 people were injured.
