Overview
- The resolution passed 13–0, with China and Russia abstaining, endorsing President Trump’s 20‑point plan for Gaza.
- The mandate empowers a multinational force to enforce Gaza’s demilitarization and permanently disarm non‑state armed groups, with authority to use all necessary measures under international law.
- The text establishes a Council of Peace and outlines a conditional path toward Palestinian self‑determination tied to Palestinian Authority reforms and progress on Gaza’s reconstruction, with authorization running through 2027.
- Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, vowed to block a Palestinian state and insisted Hamas must be disarmed and Gaza demilitarized.
- Hamas rejected the resolution, and key details on troop contributors, command structure, and protocols for disarmament and Israeli withdrawal benchmarks remain unresolved as regional tensions persist, including a UNIFIL incident under investigation in southern Lebanon.
