UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was 'dismayed' by civilian casualties in Gaza and 'deeply disturbed' by Israel's strike on a building containing international media outlets, a spokesman said in a statement released Saturday.

UNITED NATIONS - UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was "dismayed" by civilian casualties in Gaza and "deeply disturbed" by Israel's strike on a building containing international media outlets, a spokesman said in a statement released Saturday.

"The Secretary-General is dismayed by the increasing number of civilian casualties, including the death of ten members of the same family, including children, as a result of an Israeli airstrike last night in the al-Shati camp in Gaza, purportedly aimed at a Hamas leader," his spokesman, Stephane Dujarric, said in the statement.

"The Secretary-General reminds all sides that any indiscriminate targeting of civilian and media structures violates international law and must be avoided at all costs," he said.

Wow, very strong criticism against Israel, meanwhile Hamas sending 500 rockets in one day and UN were not disturbed or dismayed about it? 🤔

More than 2000 rockets launched by Hamas. Even Tel Aviv was targeted.

How about that 100s of rockets from hamas ?

What? 'dismayed' 'deeply disturbed' That is far from condemnation. Was it so hard UN to be human and set aside your interest and condemn Israel for blatant disregard to IHL and human rights? For once in your life, do your work for humanity. Shame on you UN!
