France announced its intention to present a comprehensive resolution to the UN Security Council, calling for an indefinite ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
The resolution specifically condemns the terrorist attack by Hamas on Israel that occurred on October 7.
Unlike previous ceasefire agreements, this resolution does not specify a time frame. Instead, it emphasizes the urgent need for unrestricted humanitarian access to Gaza and the prompt delivery of essential aid to the region.
Furthermore, the resolution demands the immediate release of all hostages held by Hamas and other extremist groups. It strongly condemns the reprehensible acts of sexual violence and assault against Israeli women perpetrated by Hamas and similar groups.
The authors of the resolution advocate for transferring control of the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian Authority while ensuring its integration with the West Bank and Jerusalem.
