Secretary-General António Guterres (centre at podium) briefs reporters at the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt.

" It is impossible to be here and not to feel a broken heart. We are witnessing a paradox," said the Secretary-General. "Behind these walls, we have two million people that is suffering enormously - that has no water, no food, no medicine, no fuel, that is under fire, that needs everything to survive. On this side, we have seen so many trucks loaded with water, with fuel, with medicines, with food. Exactly the same things that are needed on this side of the wall. So these trucks are not just trucks. They are a lifeline. They are the difference between life and death for so many people in Gaza, " he continued.
