@saysdotcom: The UN called for an immediate Gaza ceasefire, with 153 countries in favor, 23 abstaining, and the US, Israel, and eight others opposing. Despite being non-binding, the resolution holds political weight, reflecting a global stance. The Palestinian Authority welcomed it, urging countries to pressure Israel, while a Hamas official called for an end to "aggression". Despite the resolution, President Biden cautioned Israel, noting a risk of losing international support due to "indiscriminate" bombings. Israel's offensive in Gaza, triggered by a cross-border raid, has resulted in over 18,000 Palestinian casualties since 7 October. As tensions persist, Israel declared 19 of the 134 people in Gaza still held in captivity dead in absentia. #unitednations #gaza #israel
