US Ambassador to the UN Mike Waltz announced that the UN Security Council adopted ‘historic’ President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan on Gaza during a stakeout in New York City on Monday. The ambassador thanked countries involved in the mediation effort and announced the creation of an ‘international stabilisation force’ for the enclave to supervise Gaza’s demilitarisation. The US-backed resolution was adopted by the Security Council on Monday, with Russia and China – both being permanent members of the council – abstaining from the proposal.
