The UN Security Council is set to convene on Friday for an urgent discussion on the war in Gaza and to vote on a resolution proposal calling for an immediate humanitarian cease-fire.
This meeting follows an extraordinary move by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, who this week, for the first time during his tenure, invoked Article 99 of the UN Charter regarding the war in Gaza - a provision that can be activated in situations posing a threat to global peace and security.
Security Council member states are expected to vote on expressing "concern about the humanitarian situation in Gaza and the suffering of the Palestinians, and calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza."
This comes with an apparent disregard for the plight of captives held by Hamas, without any call for their release or condemnation of the terrorist organization.
