Ceasefire in Gaza: France brings an “ambitious” draft resolution to the UN. It took weeks for the Security Council to agree on a ceasefire in Gaza.
But he was only able to call for a temporary cessation of hostilities, during Ramadan. The diplomats are aware that this is not enough and France suggests that they get back to work. The text calls for a permanent ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian Hamas in the Gaza Strip and also demands the release of all hostages still held in the enclave.
