UNGA Calls for Israeli Occupation End
News summary

The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) overwhelmingly adopted a nonbinding resolution calling for Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories, including Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem, within a year. The resolution passed with 124 votes in favor, 14 against, and 43 abstentions, including Australia and India. The vote reflects widespread international support for Palestinian self-determination but faced opposition from Israel and the United States, which criticized the resolution as one-sided and unhelpful for peace efforts. Palestinian representatives hailed the resolution as a significant step towards justice and freedom, while Israel condemned it as supporting diplomatic terrorism. The resolution also urges countries to impose sanctions on those maintaining Israel's presence in the territories. Despite being nonbinding, the resolution signals global pressure on Israel to comply with international law regarding its settlement activities and occupation policies.
