UN renews call for ceasefire in Gaza

The United Nations is renewing its call for a ceasefire in Gaza. 

On Tuesday, Catherine Russell, the executive director of the UN Children's Fund (Unicef), took to X and wrote "Unicef welcomes the extension in the pause in fighting in Gaza.

"Unicef and partners have scaled-up our humanitarian response but much more is needed," she added.

"We continue to call for a humanitarian ceasefire and protection of aid workers and the children and families they serve."
