UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has said that Gaza now has "the highest number of children amputees per capita anywhere in the world", with "many losing limbs and undergoing surgeries without even anesthesia".
In remarks read out on his behalf at a Cairo conference aimed at increasing humanitarian aid, Mr Guterres urged the international community to "build a foundation for sustainable peace in Gaza and across the Middle East".
The UN Chief said the situation in war-torn Gaza was "appalling and apocalyptic", warning conditions faced by Palestinians in the territory may amount to the "gravest international crimes".
