Scenes from southern Gaza of thousands of people rushing a US-backed group’s aid distribution site were “heartbreaking,” UN chief Antonio Guterres’s spokesman has said, insisting on an “operationally sound plan,” AFP reports.
“We have been watching the video coming out of Gaza around one of the distribution points set up by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. And frankly, these videos, these images, are heartbreaking to say the least,” said Stephane Dujarric.
“As the Secretary-General noted last week, we and our partners have a detailed, principled, operationally sound plan supported by member states to get aid to the desperate population,” he added.
