UN warns of conflict in Gaza if reconciliation talks fail
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleConflict is likely to once again engulf Gaza if a deal on the return of the Palestinian Authority to the Hamas-controlled enclave fails, the UN envoy for the Middle East warns.
Addressing the Security Council on the eve of talks in Cairo between Palestinian factions, UN envoy Nickolay Mladenov says the Egypt-led “process must not be allowed to fail.”
“If it does, it will most likely result in another devastating conflict,” warns Mladenov.
“Whether it would be triggered by a meltdown of law and order in Gaza, by the reckless action of extremists or by strategic choice, the result will be the same — devastation and suffering for all.”
