This is the best summary I could come up with:
The United Nations Security Council has voted to support a US-proposed Israel-Gaza ceasefire plan.It sets out conditions for a “full and complete ceasefire”, the release of hostages held by Hamas, the return of dead hostages’ remains and the exchange of Palestinian prisoners.
The resolution states that Israel has accepted the ceasefire proposal, and urges Hamas to agree to it, too.
The third phase focuses on the enclave’s long-term outlook, and it would start a multi-year reconstruction plan for Gaza.
Monday’s passage of the resolution comes weeks after President Joe Biden said the Israelis had agreed to a three-phase plan that would result in a permanent ceasefire in Gaza.
“We call upon the parties to seize this opportunity and move towards lasting peace which guarantees security and stability for both the Israeli and Palestinian people,” Ms Woodward said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the time that the US had “abandoned” its prior position linking a ceasefire to the release of hostages.The conflict began when Hamas attacked southern Israel on 7 October, killing about 1,200 people and taking some 251 people hostage.The Hamas-run health ministry says the death toll in Gaza has surpassed 37,000 since Israel responded to its attack.
