联合国安理会敦促加沙立即停火
The U.N. Security Council has adopted a presidential statement supporting an "immediate and unconditional" humanitarian cease-fire between Israel and Hamas.
The measure presented early Monday urges both sides in the conflict to take steps to achieve "a durable and fully respected cease-fire." It also expresses the need for immediate humanitarian aid to the people in the Gaza Strip.
The Council's action comes after several cease-fire agreements failed to hold since the conflict escalated nearly three weeks ago.
Palestinian Ambassador to the U.N. Riyad Mansour said he hopes the statement leads to a long cease-fire, but criticized the Security Council for not taking the stronger action of adopting a resolution against what he called Israel's "aggression."
Israeli Ambassador to the U.N. Ron Prosor said Hamas has fired 2,500 rockets at Israel, and reiterated that if Israel were not facing rocket attacks, it would not need to carry out its own strikes.
He said the Security Council statement was lacking in the specific mention of Hamas, militant rocket fire or Israel's right to defend itself.
Officials including U.S. President Barack Obama have continued to try to find a lasting halt to the fighting.联合国安理会通过一项声明,敦促以色列和哈马斯立即无条件实行人道停火。
安理会星期一清晨通过的声明敦促冲突双方采取措施,实行“持久的、得到全面遵守的停火”,并呼吁该地区和世界各地所有有关方面支持这一行动。此外,声明还提到必须立即为加沙地带居民提供人道救援。
联合国安理会采取这一举措之前,冲突升级以来的近三个星期内已有数次停火归于破裂。
巴勒斯坦常驻联合国代表曼苏尔表示,他希望这项声明能够导向长期停火,但他指责安理会没有采取更有力的行动,即通过一项谴责以色列“侵略”的决议案。
以色列常驻联合国代表普罗索尔说,哈马斯向以色列境内发射了2千5百枚火箭弹。他重申,如果以色列没有遭到火箭弹袭击,就无需发动进攻。
普罗索尔说,安理会的声明没有明确提及哈马斯激进分子的火箭弹袭击和以色列的自卫权。
包括美国总统奥巴马在内的各国官员继续努力寻找实现加沙地带持久停火的途径。
