Guterres Urges Gaza Ceasefire Compliance Amid Hostage Delay

United Nations secretary-general, António Guterres, says the resumption of hostilities in Gaza that will lead to an immense tragedy must be avoided at all costs. Hamas has postponed Saturday’s scheduled release of Israeli hostages in Gaza, blaming what it says are Israeli violations of the ceasefire deal. Three hostages were set to be freed in exchange for more Palestinian prisoners held in Israel. Guterres says both sides must fully abide by their commitments in the ceasefire agreement, and resume serious negotiations for the second phase of the deal.
