Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided not to send a delegation to the United States because he did not veto the UN Security Council resolution on Gaza. In turn, Israel stated that it will continue its attacks in Gaza despite the UN Security Council resolution.

The UN Security Council adopted a resolution demanding a ceasefire in Gaza for the first time since October 7. While this decision only calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza during Ramadan, it can lead to a lasting and sustainable peace.
