Guardian - Gaza City’s mayor, Yahya al-Sarraj, has spoken to Al Jazeera about the damage in the city. He told the news network: "We are discovering now how much damage has been inflicted on the infrastructure of the city – on cultural centres, libraries and main public squares.,,, The damage is unbelievable around the city … about 60% of housing units and apartments … these apartments are not liveable at the moment."
CNN is reporting that officials from the International Committee of the Red Cross have as yet been unable to visit hostages in Gaza, which is in contradiction to the truce agreement.
The UN has called for the international community to move towards a two-state solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, saying Jerusalem should serve as the capital of both states. “It is long past time to move in a determined, irreversible way towards a two-state solution, on the basis of UN resolutions and international law,” said Tatiana Valovaya, director general of the UN office in Geneva, delivering a speech authored by the UN secretary general, António Guterres.
