UN chief Antonio Guterres says he deeply regrets the resumption of hostilities between Israel and Hamas in Gaza and hopes that a truce can be re-established.

“I deeply regret that military operations have started again in Gaza. I still hope that it will be possible to renew the pause that was established. The return to hostilities only shows how important it is to have a true humanitarian ceasefire,” the United Nations secretary-general says on X.
