UN Secretary-General, Jordan FM Discuss Responding To Gaza Humanitarian Crisis


(MENAFN- Gulf Times) United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres held talks with Ayman Safadi, Jordan's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, at the UN headquarters in New York.
The discussions focused on efforts to address the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza, caused by the Israeli assault and the blockade that prevents aid from reaching the strip.
The two sides also discussed cooperation between Jordan and UN agencies to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza. They stressed the vital and irreplaceable role of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA).
Gaza continues to face a worsening humanitarian crisis due to the ongoing Israeli siege and starvation policies, as Israeli forces maintain control over food aid and persist in bombing various areas of the strip.
