The US ambassador to the UN, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, is addressing the General Assembly ahead of an emergency vote on the conflict, here is what she has said so far:

“There is no justification for terror. None whatsoever. You all know that, and we must condemn Hamas’s acts of terror. Hamas’s goals are single-minded, and they’re sickening; they’re determined to destroy Israel and kill Jews.”

“The lives of Palestinians must be protected; the lives of UN personnel and humanitarian workers and journalists must be protected.

“We mourn the loss of every single innocent life in this crisis, every single one. We must not look away, and we must not become numb to the pain and the suffering of people like [Al Jazeera] Wael Dahdouh, a Palestinian journalist whose wife, son, daughter and grandson were killed in Gaza with week.”

“The United States has made clear in public and private conversations that as Israel exercises its right and indeed its responsibility to defend its people against the terrorist group, it must do so in line with the rules of war.”
