Hamas urges UN Security Council to end ‘brutal’ war in Gaza that it started with Oct. 7 attack
Palestinian terror group Hamas, which is engaged in deadly fighting with Israel, calls for the United Nations Security Council to end the “brutal war” in the Gaza Strip that was sparked by the mass atrocities it committed on October 7.
“We call on the Security Council, the international community and all countries around the world to end this brutal war and save the Gaza Strip before it is too late,” the Hamas government’s media office in the Palestinian territory says, as the Security Council prepared to vote on a draft resolution calling for a ceasefire.
