Guterres: UNSC reform needed over lack of unity on Ukraine, Gaza

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Monday stressed the need for “serious reform” of the Security Council due to the deadlock in resolutions on the wars in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip.

“The council’s lack of unity on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and on Israel’s military operations in Gaza following the horrific terror attacks by Hamas on October 7, has severely, perhaps fatally, undermined its authority,” Guterres said before UN Human Rights Council in Geneva.

The UN chief also pointed out that an all-out offensive in Rafah, the southernmost city in the Gaza Strip, “would not only be terrifying for more than a million Palestinian civilians sheltering there; it would put the final nail in the coffin of our aid programs.”
