The United States made clear to Israel that it was concerned about a shutdown of communications in the Gaza Strip, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the U.N. Security Council on Monday.
“We’ve made this clear to Israeli leaders and we understand communication networks have started to be restored,” she said. “This is essential. A shutdown of telecommunication imperils the lives of civilians, U.N. personnel and humanitarian workers and risks exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”
