GENEVA: The UN passed a resolution calling for an end to providing arms to Israel. Human Rights Committee passed. Out of the 48-member body, 28 countries voted in favor of the resolution. Six countries objected. 13 countries including India abstained.

The resolution calls for the appointment of an independent investigation team to monitor arms exports to Israel and ensure that arms received by the Israeli military are not used against the Palestinian people.

The resolution says Israel is waging a war on humanity in Gaza and holds Israel accountable for war crimes.

The resolution also calls for an immediate ceasefire, more humanitarian aid, and the lifting of Israel’s total blockade of Gaza.
