Hamas has committed terrible crimes and all hostages must be released immediately.
I am deeply concerned over Israel's order for the evacuation of 1,1 million people from the Gaza city. The civilians are those who are dying and suffering the most and this is unacceptable. I underline that collective punishment and attacks against civilians are prohibited under international humanitarian law.
There is an urgent need to stop the violence and de-escalate the situation. I call for an unimpeded humanitarian access.
