'Stop this hell on earth' in Eastern Ghouta, UN chief says

"It is high time to stop this hell on earth," Guterres said, following the UN Security Council's decision on Saturday to support a 30-day humanitarian ceasefire in Syria.
Combatting terrorism is no legitimate excuse for failure to protect civilians, Guterres warned at the opening of a UN Human Rights Council session.
UN human rights chief Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein said that "we have every reason to remain cautious" about the UN-backed truce, "as airstrikes on Eastern Ghouta continue this morning."
