The announced agreement for Hamas to disarm and for Israel to withdraw from Gaza is “the only good news in recent days,” UN Secretary-General António Guterres said Friday, APA reports citing CNN.
Speaking to reporters about his recent trips to Syria, Jordan and Cyprus, the UN chief said the Middle East cannot afford more war.
“Let me be clear: The fighting must stop on all fronts in the region,” he said.
Guterres also urged both Israel and Hamas to implement what was agreed.
“It was announced already that there is a roadmap to implement these objectives. That roadmap must be followed without any questions, skepticism or determination to undermine it,” he said.
