UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he was "deeply concerned at the current escalation of violence in Gaza and southern Israel, as well as in the West Bank, in particular the killing and injuring of civilians on both sides," according to a press release.
Ban called for "an immediate cessation of Palestinian sniper and rocket attacks into Israel, and for maximum restraint on the part of the IDF." (Yitzhak Benhorin, Washington)
