Statement attributable to the Spokesperson for the Secretary-General on the agreement to release hostages in Gaza
The Secretary-General welcomes the agreement reached by Israel and Hamas, with the mediation of Qatar supported by Egypt and the United States. This is an important step in the right direction, but much more needs to be done.
The United Nations will mobilize all its capacities to support the implementation of the agreement and maximize its positive impact on the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Statement by the Secretary-General on Gaza
I am deeply shocked that two UNRWA schools were struck in less than 24 hours in Gaza. Dozens of people – many women and children – were killed and injured as they were seeking safety in United Nations premises.
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinian civilians are seeking shelter at United Nations facilities throughout Gaza due to the intensified fighting. I reaffirm that our premises are inviolable.
This war is having a staggering and unacceptable number of civilian casualties, including women and children, every day. This must stop.
I reiterate my call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire.
I also want to express my deep appreciation for all the mediation efforts led by the government of Qatar.
