Calls for Gaza ceasefire ahead of 7 October anniversary
- United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza on Monday, October 5, urging lasting peace ahead of the third anniversary of the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel.
- Acknowledging the conflict's toll, Guterres noted the Hamas attack involved "killing more than 1,200 Israelis and foreign nationals" while Palestinians in Gaza have faced a "massive loss of life, displacement and destruction."
- Israel's military campaign has killed more than 74,200 people according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, while Israel refuses to withdraw soldiers until Hamas' disarmament is verified.
- Guterres acknowledged that a brief ceasefire announced by President Donald Trump in October 2025 "brought some relief" but has yet to deliver security, adequate humanitarian assistance, or a credible path to recovery.
- Since the 2023 attacks, Israel has waged military campaigns on several fronts, including invading southern Lebanon to confront Hezbollah, an Islamist movement backed by Iran, and launching war against Iran alongside the United States in late February.
