Overview

• The resolution, drafted by France and Saudi Arabia, passed 142–10 with 12 abstentions.
• It calls for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages, Hamas to relinquish control of Gaza to the Palestinian Authority, and the group’s disarmament.
• The text envisions a temporary international stabilization mission in Gaza operating under a future UN Security Council mandate.
• Israel and the United States voted against the measure—Israel labeled it “shameful”—while the Palestinian Authority welcomed the vote; Argentina and Hungary were among the other opponents.
• Follow‑through hinges on Security Council decisions and cooperation as fighting continues and talks have stalled, with several countries signaling they may recognize Palestine at the leaders’ meeting.
