US Calls for Humanitarian Action in Gaza Amid Conflict
At a recent UN Security Council meeting, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield emphasized the necessity for Israel to avoid forcible displacement and starvation policies in Gaza, highlighting potential legal repercussions. Her comments followed a report warning of imminent famine in northern Gaza due to ongoing military actions against Hamas. While Israel’s UN Ambassador Danny Danon defended Israel’s humanitarian efforts, Slovenia’s UN Ambassador urged action from the council. A proposed resolution for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian assistance in Gaza is currently under discussion among UN members.
