The United Nations Security Council will hold an emergency closed door meeting on Monday to discuss Israel’s latest escalation in the Gaza Strip.
The council’s meeting will come amid Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip. The death toll of the attacks, which also caused considerable material damage, reached 32 as of today. Meanwhile, over 260 have so far sustained injuries.
In reacting to the latest developments in the region, many countries have called for restraint and condemned Israel’s offensive.
The UN has also expressed concerns about the serious escalation, saying that the “humanitarian situation in Gaza is already dire and can only worsen with this most recent escalation.”
Lynn Hastings, the UN Humanitarian Coordinator in Palestinian territories, said: “The hostilities must stop to avoid more deaths and injuries of civilians in Gaza and Israel.
