As the death toll in Gaza skyrockets, UN envoy Riyad Mansour urges international action, warning that the world is growing desensitized to daily killings and displacement under occupation.

At least 34 Palestinians have been killed since Tuesday morning, following a series of airstrikes carried out by the Israeli occupation across various areas of the Gaza Strip, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent.

In response to the escalating violence, Palestine’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, called on the international community to intensify pressure on "Israel" to halt its ongoing crimes.

Speaking before the UN Security Council, Mansour stressed that the Palestinian people are being killed and starved on a daily basis. He noted that 70% of the victims are women and children.

Call for urgent international action, support

Mansour urged the adoption of urgent measures to confront settler-colonialism, annexation, and forced displacement, calling for the end of the Israeli occupation's illegal presence in the occupied Palestinian territories, in line with the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice.

He also called for support for the Palestinian government, which has demonstrated a clear commitment to reform and peace, as well as for the political and financial backing of the Arab reconstruction plan and continued support for UNRWA.

Highlighting the growing desensitization of the international community, Mansour warned that the greatest danger lies in the world becoming accustomed to such atrocities. He emphasized that what is happening in Gaza is not war but "cruelty", a term used by Pope Francis to describe the ongoing aggression.

These developments come amid relentless escalation by the Israeli regime, with various parts of Gaza facing continuous aerial, ground, and naval bombardment. The ongoing assault is exacerbating the suffering of civilians and threatens to cause further casualties and widespread destruction.

'Israel' creating conditions incompatible with Gaza's survival: Türk

The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, has called for immediate international intervention to prevent Gaza's humanitarian situation from spiraling into an even deeper catastrophe. In a statement issued Tuesday, Türk described the conditions created by "Israel's" total blockade of the Strip as pushing life-saving support systems toward collapse.

"There must be concerted international efforts to stop this humanitarian catastrophe from reaching a new, unseen level," Türk declared.

According to the UN rights chief, Gaza's critical infrastructure has been devastated under the blockade, with essential services like healthcare, clean water, and food supply networks now nearing total failure. Türk warned that the ongoing restrictions appear to be creating conditions that could threaten the very survival of the Palestinian population.

"Israel appears to be inflicting on Palestinians in Gaza conditions of life increasingly incompatible with their continued existence as a group in Gaza," he said.
