US efforts in Gaza ‘undermined’ by UNSC – US ambassadorpublished at 17:00 British Summer Time<\/p>\n

17:00 BST<\/p>\n

Let’s take another look at the ongoing UNSC meeting in New York, where US Ambassador Dorothy Shea has been speaking.<\/p>\n

Shea tells the council that the US has been “working tirelessly” to free hostages and end the war in Gaza, and says today’s urgent meeting “undermines” those efforts.<\/p>\n

Shea adds that Israel has accepted three ceasefire agreements which Hamas rejects. “This war could end today if Hamas let the hostages go”, Shea tells the council.<\/p>\n

She says that UN members “have taken advantage of today’s meeting” to accuse Israel of genocide”, an allegation she insists is “demonstrably false”. <\/p>\n

Shea adds that the US have been working on three points: addressing humanitarian needs, freeing the hostages and achieving peace<\/p>\n

She accuses the security council of focusing on the first point without realising they are connected. Shea adds that the US has upped humanitarian support to Gaza alongside Israel, via the GHF.<\/p>\n

She calls for the UNSC to demand Hamas release all of the hostages and disarm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"US efforts in Gaza ‘undermined’ by UNSC – US ambassadorpublished at 17:00 British Summer Time 17:00 BST Let’s…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3707,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[99,50],"class_list":{"0":"post-134738","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-israel","9":"tag-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115005362339567845","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134738"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134738\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3707"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
