UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres responded to the words of UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, Martin Griffiths, who said "Hamas is not a terrorist organization for us. This is a political movement."
A statement from his office said that: "The Secretary-General has been unequivocal in condemning the abhorrent terrorist attacks carried out by Hamas on 7 October and that there can be no justification for them.
