The United Nations Security Council has held an emergency meeting on northern Gaza, where a siege by Israeli forces is in its 12th day. The US ambassador to the UN called on Israel to uphold its humanitarian responsibilities, warning against any 'policy of starvation'.

They have been stopping aid since day one.

What's the point of the UN at this point? Just to have meetings and write letters...

Stop funding the terrorist IOF, instead of all these theatrical warning bla bla.

I don’t remember any time in the history when these “civiilised” hypocrites stood on the right side of any conflict.

Love the rhetoric from Linda ... Never gets old ... The punchline "it's unacceptable" always gets me

This is what some prominent South Africans said about Israeli Apartheid before the biggining of the genocide.

'Apartheid in South Africa was a picnic compared to what we have seen in the occupied territories'.

Baleke Mbate

Former Deputy President of South Africa

'It is hard for me to describe what I am feeling. What I see here is worse, worse, worse than everything we endured'

Nozizile Madalala

Former South African Minister of Health

'Apartheid for Palestinians is worse than conditions for blacks under the Apartheid regime in South Africa'.

Kgalema Motlante

Former President of South Africa

I am proud of South Africa for bringing Israel to the ICJ and ICC. It is high time that Netanyahu and Gallant are put on trial for genocide. And that strong sanctions be placed on the rogue state of Israel

remember the most morale army and remember democracy and look back in history about how much damage they done

[ramatgan]

Well done to the Guyana Ambassador she always stands for the truth

A sentence that no Palestinian will ever say: "This genocide is terrible! Hamas, release the hostages unconditionally and get out of Gaza!"

I wonder if your meeting would have more urgency if it was held in Gaza 🤔

[jamesstirling]

This is absolute rubbish all these meetings with no out come waste of people and organisation

[bryanlloydpallega]

This emergency meeting becomes regular meeting..

[Dylpickle]

Just to think after 47 meetings someone would open their face holes and say "there is a clear problem here, america is no longer allowed to veto against any and all efforts for permanent ceasefire, palestine must now be recognised, its time we pull our fingers out and step in once and for all"

But i guess thats just wishful thinking

[moebreezy]

Bro why isn’t the world leaders moving??? Do they want the next generation to read about the history of those countries and how they were watching a 50 year old colonial state commit jenooo side in front of their eyes!

[fuckbankers]

Stop the genocide.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸

[Taai]

USA in dilemma 😂
Whom to save first?
Ukraine from Russia
Israel from iran
South korea from North korea
Or
Taiwan from China😂😂
The question is which country is going to be saved first 😂😂

[pesilaratnayake]

US Ambassador forgot to mention that, since such a policy would be against US and international law, then it can't possibly be Israel's policy. No matter how much it looks like it...

[Jon-hi]

October 7 has not really panned out very well, no?

[lailaansari]
