UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said today he regrets the UN Security Council's failure to demand a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, condemning the divisions that have paralyzed the world body. Addressing Qatar's Doha Forum, Guterres said the council was paralyzed by geostrategic divisions that were undermining solutions to the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza, which so far resulted in the murder of nearly 17,000 Palestinian, predominantly civilians. The body's 'authority and credibility were severely undermined' by its delayed response to the Israeli aggression, said the UN chief two days after a US veto prevented a resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. 'I reiterated my appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared,' he told the forum. 'Regrettably, the Security Council failed to do it,' he added. 'I can promise, I will not give up.'
