UN to demand Israel end 'unlawful' presence in Palestinian...

The United Nations General Assembly is set to adopt a Palestinian-drafted resolution demanding that Israel end its 'unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory' within 12 months. The resolution comes after a July advisory opinion by the International Court of Justice that deemed Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories and settlements illegal. The draft resolution allows for a 12-month timeline for withdrawal. The resolution is the first to be put forward by the Palestinian Authority since gaining additional rights and privileges at the UN. The US has urged countries to vote against the resolution, stating that it undermines the prospect of a two-state solution.
