UN: Political process cannot succeed while Gaza remains devastated, violence escalates in West Bank

The United Nations has expressed concerns about the stalled political progress in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, citing ongoing devastation in Gaza and escalating violence in the West Bank. Deputy Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Ramiz Alakbarov, emphasized during a UN Security Council briefing that Gaza's reconstruction efforts are hindered by the lack of a functioning political process. He noted that continued Israeli airstrikes and territorial expansions are increasing pressure on Gazans, who are confined to a shrinking portion of their territory. Additionally, Alakbarov highlighted persistent attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank, describing them as occurring at 'alarming levels.' The remarks underscore the complex challenges facing any potential peace initiative.
