Failure to Pass bill to dissolve Israeli enemy Knesset
Occupied al-Quds - Saba: The Israeli opposition failed to pass a bill to dissolve the Knesset, which was voted on early Thursday morning. 61 MKs opposed the bill, while 53 supported it. According to Israeli sources, the vote was divided within the ultra-Orthodox United Torah Judaism bloc. MKs from the Agudat Yisrael party voted in favor of the bill, while MKs from Degel HaTorah, a member of the bloc, opposed it. This move followed a dispute over a bill to draft more ultra-Orthodox Jews into military service. On June 25, 2024, the Israeli Supreme Court ruled that military service would be compulsory for Jews (Haredi) and that financial support for religious institutions whose students refuse to be drafted would be suspended.

UNGA to vote on draft resolution calling for an end to war on Gaza
New York - Saba: The UN General Assembly will vote Thursday on a draft resolution calling for an immediate, unconditional, and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. This comes after the Security Council failed to adopt a draft resolution for a ceasefire in Gaza following a US veto. Diplomats expect the 193-member UN General Assembly to approve the text by an overwhelming majority, despite pressure from Israel on the countries voting on the draft resolution. Last week, the United States vetoed a draft resolution in the UN Security Council calling for the immediate and unconditional lifting of all restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza and its safe and unhindered distribution on a large scale, including through the United Nations and humanitarian partners throughout the Gaza Strip. The remaining countries on the 15-member council voted in favor of the draft resolution. These efforts come at a time when a humanitarian crisis is sweeping the Gaza Strip, home to more than two million people. The United Nations warns of a looming famine, with only a small amount of aid entering the Strip. It should be noted that General Assembly resolutions are non-binding, but they carry weight as they reflect the global perspective on the war. Previous calls by the Assembly to end the war have been ignored. Unlike the Security Council, no state has veto power in the General Assembly. The Gaza Strip has been suffering a catastrophic humanitarian crisis since Israel closed all crossings on March 2, preventing the entry of food, medicine, aid, and fuel. Meanwhile, Israeli forces are escalating their genocide against the Palestinian people in the Strip. Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli enemy has been committing genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, destruction, and displacement, ignoring international appeals and orders from the International Court of Justice to halt it. The genocide left approximately 182,000 Palestinians dead and wounded, most of them women and children, and more than 11,000 missing. Hundreds of thousands were displaced, and famine claimed the lives of many, including children, as well as widespread destruction. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
