الأمم المتحدة تصوت على الدعوة لإنهاء الاحتلال الإسرائيلي

September 18, 2024 - مشروع القرار الفلسطيني المقدم إلى الجمعية العامة للأمم المتحدة يطالب الكيان الإسرائيلي بإنهاء “وجوده غير القانوني” في غزة والضفة الغربية المحتلة خلال 12 شهرا.

The action will isolate Israel days before world leaders travel to New York for their annual U.N. gathering. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is due to address the 193-member General Assembly on Sept. 26, the same day as Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

The draft resolution aims to welcome a July advisory opinion by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that said Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories and settlements is illegal and should be withdrawn.

The draft resolution is the first to be formally put forward by the Palestinian Authority since it gained additional rights and privileges this month including a seat among UN members in the assembly hall and the right to propose draft resolutions.

The ICJ advisory opinion is not binding but carries weight under international law and may weaken support for Israel. A General Assembly resolution also is not binding, but carries political weight. There is no veto power in the assembly, Reuters said.
