A US-proposed United Nations Security Council resolution on Gaza will be brought to a vote on Friday, US Mission to the UN spokesperson Nate Evans told CNN.
The resolution, which the US has been working on for weeks, calls for “an immediate and sustained ceasefire… in connection with the release of all remaining hostages.”
The US vetoed multiple prior UNSC resolutions calling for immediate ceasefires. US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said after vetoing an Algerian resolution in late February that it “would put sensitive negotiations in jeopardy.”
Here are the latest developments in the conflict:
Ceasefire talks: Talks on a deal to secure the release of hostages held in Gaza alongside a ceasefire will resume in Qatar today, according to sources familiar with the plans. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who is expected in Israel today, said „gaps are narrowing“ in negotiations on a deal but challenges remain.
