Gaza Ceasefire

It is ready to cooperate with mediators over implementing the principles of the plan. The group also said it was willing to engage in indirect negotiations over implementing the principles “that are consistent with the demands of our people and resistance.”

The resolution urges Israel and Hamas “to fully implement its terms without delay and condition.”

US Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood told reporters before the vote on Monday that the United States wanted to make sure all 15 Security Council members were on board. Wood described the draft resolution as “the best, most realistic opportunity to bring at least a temporary halt to this war.”
