Malnutrition is soaring and starvation is “knocking on every door” in Gaza, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said on Tuesday, describing the situation in the enclave as a “horror show”. “We need look no further than the horror show in Gaza — with a level of death and destruction without parallel in recent times,” Mr Guterres told the UN Security Council. “Malnourishment is soaring. Starvation is knocking on every door. Now we are seeing the last gasp of a humanitarian system built on humanitarian principles,” he added.
