Sustainable truce in Israeli war on Gaza key to security conundrum in region: Iran’s UN mission
Iran’s permanent mission to the United Nations says a sustainable ceasefire in Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip is the key to restoring security and stability in the West Asia region.
“A sustainable ceasefire for the war on Gaza serves as the linchpin to unravel the security conundrum in the region, restore tranquility along the Red Sea and the border between Lebanon and occupied Palestine, and halt the pernicious cycle of retaliatory measures,” the mission wrote in a social media post on Tuesday.
It came after the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement confirmed that it is studying a three-phase proposal for a truce in Gaza.
The head of Hamas’s political bureau Ismail Haniyeh said on Tuesday that he is studying the proposal, brought forward in Paris over the weekend, to halt the war and enable the exchange of Palestinian detainees and Israeli captives.
Haniyeh noted in a statement that Hamas is “open to discussing any serious and practical initiatives or ideas, provided that they lead to a comprehensive cessation of aggression.”
US airstrikes on Yemen in response to pro-Palestine operations by the Yemeni army in the Red sea have widened the conflict and caused it to spread to areas beyond Palestine.
Yemenis have declared their open support for Palestine’s struggle against the Israeli occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7 after the territory’s Palestinian resistance movements carried out a surprise retaliatory attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.
The United States and the United Kingdom have been carrying out strikes against Yemen after the Biden administration and its allies offered the Tel Aviv regime unqualified support and said that Yemeni forces bear the consequences of their attacks against Israeli-owned ships or merchant vessels heading to the occupied territories.
The Israeli regime’s genocidal war on Gaza has also prompted retaliatory strikes from Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah.
The movement has vowed to keep up its retaliatory operations as long as the Tel Aviv regime continues its onslaught on Gaza.
The Israeli campaign in Gaza has killed at least 26,751 people, most of them children and women. Another 65,636 individuals have also been wounded.
