UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned on Tuesday the continuing Palestinian rocket fire from Gaza aimed at Israeli civilian targets, which killed two civilians in southern Israel on Saturday and Monday.
The secretary-general "reiterates his condemnation of all such acts of terrorism and calls on Hamas and other Palestinian militant groups to immediately halt the firing of rockets and similar attacks," Ban's spokesperson Michele Montas told reporters.
"He also reiterates his strong support for the Egyptian efforts to reach a truce, which would also encompass the re-opening of crossings to alleviate the humanitarian situation in Gaza," she added.
