UN secretary general calls Gaza famine a 'man-made disaster' and 'failure of humanity'

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called the famine in Gaza a "man-made disaster" and a "failure of humanity." The remarks came after the United Nations officially declared that a famine is taking place in the territory. Guterres stated that the famine is a result of the deliberate collapse of systems required for human survival, leading to starvation and the death of children. He also noted that as the occupying power, Israel has unequivocal obligations under international law to ensure the population receives food and medical supplies.
