UNโข Security Council Approves Trump‘s โคGaza Plan, Paving Way for International Force
UNITED โNATIONS – The โUnited Nations Securityโค Council has approved a Gaza plan proposed โคby US President Trump, a move โthat authorizes the potential deployment of an international force to the Gaza Strip. The resolution passed with thirteen โคvotes in favor, while Russia andโ China, both permanent members with veto power, abstained.
The vote centers onโข a 20-point plan agreed upon in early October between Trump,โฃ Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, andโ Hamas.The initial phase of the agreement saw aโ truce implemented and the release of โฃIsraeli hostages and Palestinianโค prisoners. โThis Security Council approval is crucial for โmoving forward with the plan’sโข second phase, โwhich includes establishing โคa newโข administration for Gaza and deploying โขthe international peacekeeping force.
The resolution acknowledges the possibility of a future Palestinian state, stating that, followingโ reforms and reconstruction, “theโข conditions could create a credible path to Palestinian self-determination and a Palestinian state.” The โUS is tasked with initiating dialog between Israel and the Palestinians to establish “a political horizon for โฃpeaceful and prosperous coexistence.”
However, Hamas has already rejected the resolution, arguingโฃ that any force aimed at disarming the group would โbecome a partyโฃ to the conflict rather than remaining neutral. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu reiterated his opposition to a Palestinian state last weekend. Israel is โฃnot a member of the UN Security Council.
The plan was approved yesterday, November 17, 2025,โ with an amendment madeโค later that evening at 11:52 PM.
