UN General Assembly takes over from Security Council, calls for humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza
\n\n
UN. The conflict between Israel and Hamas continues to claim victims, prompting
UN General Assembly to take over from
Security Council and to call for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza.\n\n
A resolution for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza
\n\nGiven the increasing urgency of the situation in Gaza, the
UN General Assembly replaced the
Security Council and adopted a resolution calling for a humanitarian ceasefire. The objective of this resolution is to allow the arrival of humanitarian aid and to put an end to the hostilities which have already cost the lives of hundreds of people.\n\n
The failure of the Security Council and the relay of the General Assembly
\n\nThe action of the
UN General Assembly occurs after the incapacity of the
Security Council to agree on a joint resolution regarding the conflict in Gaza. Although several attempts have been made to negotiate a ceasefire, these efforts have so far been hampered by ongoing disagreements among its members.\n\n
Expectations regarding the involvement of the UN General Assembly
\n\nGiven the urgency of the situation, the involvement of
UN General Assembly brings new hope for the establishment of a ceasefire. Unlike the
Security Council, the decisions taken by the General Assembly are not binding, but they have a strong symbolic and moral value. Thus, the call for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza could put considerable pressure on the parties involved in the conflict to stop hostilities.\n\nThe world is now looking towards
UN General Assembly with the hope that his appeal will have a real impact and contribute to putting an end to this tragic situation unfolding in Gaza. \n\n
