Israel's war on Gaza, now in its 245th day, has killed at least 36,654 Palestinians — 71% of them being women, children and infants –– and wounded 83,309, Palestine reports, with 10,000+ believed to be buried under the debris of bombed homes.The United States has circulated the revised draft of a UN Security Council resolution aimed at bringing about a ceasefire in Gaza, but Israel privately objected to its close ally’s latest attempt to stop the genocidal war.
That includes"actions that reduce the territory of Gaza, such as through the permanent establishment officially or unofficially of so-called buffer zones," which Israel has already said it plans. The council's only Arab member, Algeria, also signalled it was not ready to back the text, diplomats said.
Russia proposed amendments to the US text, which were seen by the Reuters news agency, that included calling upon both Hamas and Israel to accept the proposal and demanding an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire respected by all parties. House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat, along with Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell and House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries, signed the letter extending the invitation to Netanyahu.Netanyahu's appearance before a growingly divided Congress is sure to be contentious and met with plenty of protests both inside the Capitol from lawmakers and outside by pro-Palestinian protesters.
In contrast, the earlier draft solely urged Hamas to accept the proposal. Furthermore, the updated resolution asserts that the US rejects any attempt at demographic or territorial change in Gaza, as per the broadcaster's report.
