New York (NNP) A decisive move aimed at alleviating the ongoing conflict in Gaza, the United Nations Security Council rallied behind a resolution for an immediate ceasefire. The historic decision unfolded in a pivotal meeting held in New York, underscoring the international community’s commitment to peace and stability in the region.

Initiated by 10 member states, including Algeria, Japan, Ecuador, Switzerland, South Korea, and Malta, the resolution garnered widespread support from 14 out of the 15 Security Council members.

With the international community’s resounding call for an immediate ceasefire, hopes emerge for a cessation of violence and the initiation of diplomatic dialogue to achieve lasting peace in the region.

As the world watches closely, the spotlight now shifts to the implementation of the ceasefire resolution and the collective efforts needed to pave the way for a sustainable and just resolution to the conflict in Gaza.
