UN Security Council backs US Israel-Gaza ceasefire plan

Reading Level

The United Nations Security Council has voted to back a ceasefire plan proposed by the United States to put an end to the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza. The plan sets out specific conditions for a full ceasefire, including the release of hostages held by Hamas, the repatriation of deceased hostages' remains, and the exchange of Palestinian prisoners. With 14 out of the 15 Security Council members voting in favor of the US-drafted resolution, and Russia choosing to abstain, the resolution confirms Israel's acceptance of the ceasefire proposal and calls on Hamas to do the same. This decision aligns the Security Council with several governments and the G7 group, all of which have thrown their support behind the three-part plan unveiled by President Joe Biden on May 31. The vote is expected to exert additional pressure on both sides to respond positively to the plan, with the aim of bringing an end to the conflict.
