Update: 2025-08-26
Description
The countries that have called today’s session of the UN Security Council have issued a joint statement that condemns Israel’s plan to seize Gaza City, saying that it risks “violating international humanitarian law” and will “only endanger the lives of all civilians in Gaza”. “We call on Israel to urgently reverse this decision and not to implement” the plan, the statement reads. It goes on to say that Israel’s decision will do nothing to secure the return of the remaining captives still held in Gaza, and would even endanger their lives. The countries also called the current starvation of Gaza a “manmade crisis”, and said that “urgent action is needed to halt starvation and to surge aid into Gaza”
