The United Nations Safety Council did not cross a decision calling for the supply of humanitarian assist for residents of Gaza, the place 2.3 million Palestinians have been residing underneath an Israeli-imposed “full siege” for greater than per week.
The UN has warned of a looming humanitarian disaster within the Palestinian territory, which Israel has bombarded relentlessly since Hamas fighters attacked Israel on October 7.
The UN has ready assist to be delivered to Gaza by way of the Rafah crossing however its vans stay blocked on the bottom, whereas the Safety Council stays polarised.
So, what position can the UN play in Gaza?
