Algeria to prepare draft resolution to call for end of Rafah massacre
Algeria's Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations has announced that his country will present a draft resolution at the world body to demand an end to killings in Rafah, a city in the war-ravaged southern Gaza Strip.
Tehran, Qodsna - Amar Bendjama made the announcement following a closed-door session of the UN Security Council on Tuesday local time regarding Israel's attack on a refugee camp in Rafah that left dozens of civilians dead on Sunday.
“It will be a short text, a decisive text, to stop the killing in Rafah”, Bendjama told reporters but did not mention when he hoped the resolution might be put to a vote.
It was Algeria that had requested Tuesday’s urgent meeting of the 15-member council after Sunday’s strike.
A civil defense official in Gaza has said another Zionist strike on a displacement camp west of Rafah on Tuesday martyred at least 21 more people.
The council has failed to reach a consensus to stop Zionist war on Gaza that has, so far, claimed more than 36,000 lives, mostly women and children.
After passing two resolutions on the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza, the council’s several attempts to pass a resolution for an immediate ceasefire were blocked by the United States, the Zionist regime's ally and key backer.
