Hamas has rejected the UN security council passing the US-drafted resolution endorsing an International Stabilisation Force in Gaza, saying it fails to meet Palestinians’ rights and demands, favours the Israeli occupation, and seeks to impose an international trusteeship on the enclave that Palestinians and resistance factions oppose.

Axar.az informs, citing Guradian, “The resolution imposes an international guardianship mechanism on the Gaza Strip, which our people and their factions reject,” the group said in a lengthy post on Telegram. It goes on:

Assigning the international force with tasks and roles inside the Gaza Strip, including disarming the resistance, strips it of its neutrality, and turns it into a party to the conflict in favour of the occupation.

Any international force, if established, must be deployed only at the borders to separate forces, monitor the ceasefire, and must be fully under UN supervision.
