Security Council overwhelmingly calls for immediate Gaza ceasefire
8 January 2009 – The United Nations Security Council tonight overwhelmingly called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza leading to a full Israeli withdrawal, the unimpeded provision throughout Gaza of food, fuel and medical treatment, and intensified international arrangements to prevent arms and ammunition smuggling.
Fourteen of the Council’s 15 members voted in favour, with only the United States abstaining.
The resolution, presented by the United Kingdom and adopted as Israel’s offensive moved into its 14th day, emphasized that Palestinian and Israeli civilian populations must be protected, voiced grave concern at the heavy civilian casualties and the deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and condemned all violence and hostilities directed against civilians and all acts of terrorism.
The Israeli operation has so far killed 758 people in Gaza, of whom 257 were children and 56 women, with 3,100 wounded, 1,080 of them children and 452 women, according to Palestinian reports cited as credible by UN officials.
The resolution called for renewed efforts to achieve a comprehensive peace with two democratic states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace with secure and recognized borders. The West Bank-based Palestine Authority of President Mahmoud Abbas accepts the two-state solution, while Hamas, which seized control of Gaza in 2007, does not recognize Israel’s right to exist. The resolution “encourages tangible steps towards intra-Palestinian reconciliation.”
The 15-member Council welcomed Egyptian and other efforts under way to end the current crisis, which began on 27 December with Israeli air strikes launched with the stated aim of ending Hamas rocket attacks.[/I
But will Israel respect this? History proven that Israel will not respect any truce or peace deal let alone UN Resolution which todate none they complied. Allah swt also recorded in the Quran, refer An Nisaa' (4.154 - 155). US has abstained from voting show the tone of demand to Israel was soft otherwise they would have vetoed. Brothers and sisters, we must continue our struggle, our dua, our boycott of Israel products and whatever we are doing now to pressure international communities to act.
