UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called for independent investigations into the deaths of 196 aid workers in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas conflict. He emphasized the need for Israel to enhance aid access quickly and effectively. Global concern grew following Israeli airstrikes that killed seven workers from a US-based food charity. Guterres highlighted the significance of addressing military strategy flaws leading to repeated errors. The Security Council discussed a looming famine in Gaza and highlighted the urgency of safeguarding aid workers. Guterres expressed dismay over reports of the Israeli military using artificial intelligence to pinpoint bombing targets in Gaza, stressing the importance of human decision-making in such matters.
