145 Nations support UN General Assembly resolution condemning Israeli settlement activities in Occupied Palestinian Territory
A total of 145 nations have voted in support of a United Nations (UN) General Assembly resolution that
condemns Israeli settlement activities in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT).
The UN resolution denouncing settlement operations in the OPT, including East Jerusalem and in the occupied Syrian Golan, was approved on Nov. 16 by the Special Political and Decolonization Committee (Fourth Committee) with a recorded vote of 145 in favor, seven against and 18 abstentions.
According to a UN report,
attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians in the West Bank and East Jerusalem have more than doubled since the Hamas attack on Oct. 7. These attacks have led hundreds of Palestinians to leave their homes, resulting in over 9,500 deaths. Additionally, the UN has documented 222 settler attacks against Palestinians in October alone, resulting in eight deaths and 64 injuries, nearly half of which were caused by live ammunition.
The
UN strongly condemns settlement activities like confiscation of land; disruption of the livelihood of protected persons; forced transfer of civilians; and annexation of land, whether de facto or through national legislation. The resolution stated that these settlements are illegal and a hindrance to peace and economic and social development. Moreover, it reiterates the demand for the immediate and complete cessation of settlements in the mentioned territories. (Related:
