UN General Assembly Urges Israel to End Occupation in Landmark Resolution
In a landmark resolution, the United Nations General Assembly has called on Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories. The resolution, which was passed by a significant majority, signals growing international frustration with the ongoing conflict and the expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. The UN has reiterated its support for a two-state solution, urging both Israel and Palestine to engage in peace talks.
While Palestinian leaders welcomed the resolution as a step toward justice, Israeli officials dismissed it as biased, citing security concerns and the need to protect Israeli citizens from attacks. The issue of settlement expansion remains one of the most contentious aspects of the conflict, with many in the international community viewing it as a barrier to peace.
The UN’s call for Israel to withdraw from the territories reflects long-standing concerns about human rights violations and the need for a just and lasting solution to the conflict.
