Correspondent of Israel and the Palestinian Territories Nasrah Habiballah:

“At first, Israel opposed this decision from the UN Safety Council. Prime Minister Netanyahu backed down considerably instantly after US President Biden’s speech by which he put ahead the proposal for the ultimate ceasefire. He stated he was not offered with the complete plan, there have been variations between the proposal for Israel and Biden’s proposal.

In the long run, the US modified the decision a bit. For instance, the purpose that the US is towards buffer zones was eliminated. Israel actually desires that. These adjustments now appear to be sufficient for Israel. This was additionally evident final night time throughout the vote within the Safety Council: there was no criticism from the consultant of Israel.

However there isn’t a settlement but. Israel won’t speak about a everlasting ceasefire if Hamas disappears. Hamas is barely keen to speak badly if the aim is an enduring peace. When Biden offered the plan, it appeared optimistic, however we later discovered that not a lot has modified. The talks are nonetheless caught on the identical factors. The hope is that with this decision the stress on each camps will likely be so excessive that they are going to agree, though it’s nonetheless a tough story.”
