UN chief Guterres slams civilian deaths in West Bank, pushes two-state solution
Kicking off the United Nations General Assembly, Secretary-General Antonio Guterres says “escalating violence and bloodshed in the occupied Palestinian Territories is taking a terrible toll on civilians.”
He makes the comments while listing various hostilities around the world and urging more efforts for peace.
“Unilateral actions are intensifying and undermining the possibility of a two-state solution,” he says, calling it the best way for Palestinians and Israelis to reach peace.
