Six weeks after the start of the war in Gaza, the UN security council has come together to back a resolution calling for “urgent extended humanitarian pauses for [a] sufficient number of days to allow aid access” to the embattled territory.
The vote late on Wednesday overcame an impasse which saw four unsuccessful attempts to adopt a resolution.
Malta drafted the resolution, which calls for humanitarian corridors across the Gaza Strip and urges the release of all hostages held by Hamas.
The US and the UK, two potentially veto-wielding powers, abstained on the resolution on the grounds that although they supported the emphasis on humanitarian relief, they could not give their full support because it contained no explicit criticism of Hamas. Russia also abstained on the grounds that it made no mention of an immediate ceasefire, its top imperative.
The resolution was passed with 12 votes in favour, and is the first UN resolution on the Israel-Palestine conflict since 2016.
The Israeli foreign ministry said it rejected the resolution, prompting the Palestinian representative, Riyad Mansour, to ask the UN security council members what they intended to do in the face of that defiance.

if only they had called for a pause when Hamas was beheading babies!
Hamas should have prepared for war to go to war. Tough schitsky. The Gazans need to thrash those idiots.
The E freakin U can fuq themselves
Vietnam has taught us how well those pauses work.
Eff the UN and the putrid turds they have for dinner.
The hostages were all DEAD weeks ago, just flatten Gaza and salt the ground.
Yeah, there does need to be a pause so the barbarians can plan and launch their next round of atrocities.
Israel should piss on that UN proposal.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..
That and the foregoing all 100% correct!
No pause. No surrender. No quarter. Seal the tunnels. Bury the savages alive.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Exactly. And if any barbarians emerge from the tunnels well, that’s one of the best uses for a flamethrower!
Don’t worry, the IDF will finish the job
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Pray that they’re successful because that is definitely in our best interests. How do we know that? Because the Democrats and their RINO ass kissers are opposed to it.
They will issue a strongly-worded letter.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...
They would be wise to leave Israel and the IDF alone because they themselves are in the crosshairs of the barbarians.
hunt down and kill every HAMAS that can be found.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
That should be supported by every civilized person on the planet.
After the the United Nations Secretary General, António Guterres takes a flying leap into a steaming pile of pig manure, the UN should vacate 405 E 45th St, New York, NY 10017. Everyone should use that mailing address to say the same.
F the UN ,it’s becoming clear ,it will soon be America against the world.
Screw the un and biden crowd.
