After several delays in voting on a resolution that could see the end of the ongoing hostilities in Gaza, the UN Security Council missed another opportunity to end the war as it failed to call for a ceasefire despite passing a watered-down resolution.
A draft resolution proposed by the United Arab Emirates was finally put to vote and adopted on Friday after several delays and negotiations to ensure the resolution was not vetoed by the US.
The resolution asked that parties allow, facilitate and enable the immediate, safe and unhindered delivery of humanitarian assistance at scale directly to the Palestinian civilian population throughout the Gaza Strip.
