UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres issues a condemnation of the recent terror wave in Israel, which has taken the lives of 11 citizens.

“Such acts of violence can never be justified and must be condemned by all,” says a statement from Guterres’s office.

“In the spirit of the upcoming religious holy days, the secretary general calls for an immediate end to violence, which only serves to undermine the prospects for peace,” the statement adds.
