United Nations spokesman Stephane Dujarric says the consequences of an Israeli ground operation in Rafah would be catastrophic.

"This is way bigger than the United Nations can deal with alone, or the humanitarian community can deal with it alone. Because this is so catastrophic, the whole population is impacted by this. So whilst we can try and bring some light amidst the very dark, huge amounts of darkness, we have to continue to hope for the success of a ceasefire coming through."

他说:“这是联合国无法单独处理的问题，人道主义团体也无法单独处理。因为这是灾难性的，整个种群都受到了影响。因此，虽然我们可以尝试在非常黑暗，巨大的黑暗中带来一些光明，但我们必须继续希望停火能够成功。”
