Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant drew international condemnation by announcing on Monday a"total blockade" to stop food and fuel reaching Gaza, home to 2.3 million people. Gallant said Israel was battling"beastly people." Sullivan also said US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday discussed"the difference between going full bore against Hamas terrorists and how we distinguish between terrorists and innocent civilians."
"The humanitarian situation in Gaza was extremely dire before these hostilities; now it will only deteriorate exponentially," Guterres said.
