Key Provisions of the UN Security Council Resolution on Gaza

The ⁣United Nations Security Council approved a U.S.-proposed resolution earlier today,⁤ with⁤ 13 countries ⁤voting in favor and Russia and⁤ China abstaining.

the English section of webangah News Agency,⁢ citing Al Jazeera via Mehr News ⁣Agency, reported that the ⁢resolution welcomes ‍the establishment of a “Peace Council” to ⁢oversee Gaza’s reconstruction until reforms ‍in the Palestinian Authority are⁢ complete.

The resolution emphasizes​ that the conclusion of reforms⁤ within the Palestinian Authority and​ progress in rebuilding efforts could pave the way for determining Palestine’s future and establishing a sovereign state.

It stresses ⁣the urgent need ⁤to ⁤resume‌ aid to ⁢Gaza, calling for ⁤cooperation‍ with the Peace Council‍ and‌ ensuring ‍aid is⁢ used exclusively for peaceful purposes.

The document ⁣states that participating countries ‍and ‌the ‍Peace Council may create operational bodies with international ‌authority to​ manage transitional governance.

According to the ‍resolution, these ‌operational bodies will ​work under the Peace​ Council’s ⁣supervision, funded through voluntary contributions from donors and agencies.

It urges the World Bank ‌and other​ international financial institutions to support ​Gaza’s reconstruction by ⁤establishing a ⁣dedicated fund for this purpose.

The resolution calls for forming a temporary international ⁤stabilization force‍ in Gaza, operating under unified ⁣command coordinated with Egypt and Israel.

This stabilization force is tasked with disarming Gaza⁢ Strip factions, protecting ‍Palestinian civilians, and training Palestinian police forces.

Additionally, it‍ will assist in securing ‌humanitarian crossings⁤ within Gaza.

The resolution​ stipulates that as control by this stabilization ‌force progresses ‍according to agreed criteria and timelines, Israeli military forces ⁤will withdraw accordingly.

States and organizations are urged to provide financial support, logistics, and personnel resources ⁢necessary for both ⁣the Peace Council’s work and ​maintaining stability in Gaza.

The Peace Council⁢ is required to​ submit biannual‍ writen reports on ‍progress in Gaza directly to​ the Security Council.

The⁣ mission deadline set by this ⁣resolution‌ extends until‌ late 2027 for ending both civilian presence as well as international security operations⁣ within Gaza.
