UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon today called Israeli Prime Minister Olmert to "express disappointment" regarding the continuing battles despite the UN Security Council resolution for a comprehensive cease fire in the Palestinian city of Gaza.
According to the UN press office, Ki Moon stated directly to Mr, Olmert; "We are disappointed in the ignoring of the resolution amid continuing violence on the ground." He gave a similar message to Islamic Radical Group Hamas.
Also at a televised press conference, John Ging, Head of the UN Works and Relief Agency said that "Today we embraced the good news of the resolution but with passing time our expectations lower."
