Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process Tor Wennesland urged Israelis and Palestinians to stop their aggressive retaliatory actions Tuesday night, warning against "a full-scale war."

"Leaders on all sides have to take the responsibility of de-escalation," he said in a statement. "The cost of war in Gaza is devastating & is being paid by ordinary people. UN is working with all sides to restore calm. Stop the violence now."
