UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres strongly condemned Israeli settlement activity in occupied territories, saying it undermines hopes for a viable Palestinian state.
In a report on the implementation of Resolution 2334, Guterres warned that the recent suffering in Gaza is alarming and indicates the situation is at the brink of war, reiterating the call for an independent and transparent investigation into reasons behind the killing of dozens and injuring thousands of Palestinian civilians near the border fence with Israel.
