Situation in the Middle East/ Emergency UN session held in New York

In an emergency meeting requested by the United Kingdom, France, Slovenia, Denmark and Greece, ambassadors to the United Nations met in the Security Council at UN headquarters in New York this Sunday.

The debate, focused on the situation in the Middle East and in particular the Gaza Strip, sparked an exchange of discussions.

In his opening statement, Miroslav Jenca, UN Assistant Secretary-General for Europe, Central Asia and the Americas, warned that the Israeli government's plan for an expanded military operation in Gaza could have far-reaching consequences.

"The latest decision by the Israeli government risks igniting another horrific chapter in this conflict, with possible consequences beyond Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory, acknowledging that at the moment, we have limited official details of Israel's military plans," Jenca said.

On the other hand, US representative Tammy Bruce accused governments that criticize Israel's actions of helping Hamas.

"Today's meeting is symbolic of the counterproductive role that many governments on this Council and throughout the UN system have played on this issue. Instead of putting pressure on Hamas, members of this body have actively encouraged and rewarded its stubbornness, prolonging the war by spreading lies about Israel, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, and the United States, and giving the terrorists propaganda victories," Bruce said. /CNA
