The United Nations Security Council is set to vote on the US proposal for a permanent ceasefire and release of hostages in Gaza at 3pm ET on Monday, as confirmed by a US official. The official also expressed confidence that the vote will pass.
The latest draft of the US proposal, obtained from a reliable source, emphasizes the importance of the ceasefire proposal announced on May 31, which has been accepted by Israel. The proposal urges Hamas to also accept the ceasefire and calls on both parties to promptly and unconditionally implement its terms.
