Now they put veto at the request for an emergency and unconditional interruption of the Gaza’s waist. Here’s why
On Wednesday, the United States Blocked the Draft of the UN Security Council resolution, which requires a current, unconditional and permanent interruption of fire in Gaza between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas and a non-metic distribution of humanitarian aid throughout the enclave.
» The attitude of the United States is clear, we cannot support any measures if there is no Hamas condemnation in them, and if he is not invited to be disarmed and abandoned Gaza, » said the acting of the US Ambassador at the UN Dorothy Shea before voting.
» This resolution would encourage Hamas and undermine the diplomatic efforts to achieve the interruption of fire that would respect the real situation on the ground, she said about a document proposed by 10 of the 15 safety council members.
The other 14 countries voted to accept the draft resolution, but as one of five permanent members of the Council, now they have a vet right.
Israel rejected the demands for unconditional and permanent interruption of fire, saying that Hamas could not stay in Gaza. After the end of the two -month break of fire in March this year, he again launched a military offensive in the Palestinian enclave, seeking the release of hostages held by Hamas.
Prior to voting in the Security Council, the first UN man for humanitarian aid Tom Fletcher once again urged to allow humanitarian organizations to share the package of Gaza residents, pointing out that they have plan, stock and experience in similar situations.
» Repeat restrictions on what and how much help we can bring. Ensure our convoys are not because of delay and rejection, « Fletcher said.
The UN has been accusing Israel for a long time of interfering with the delivery and distribution of humanitarian aid in the war zone. On the other hand, Israel replies that Hamas steals the packages of humanitarian aid, which he denies.
