NEW YORK, March 23 — The international community appealed yesterday for a de-escalation of Israeli-Palestinian tensions as Israel was chided for its ongoing settlement activity in Palestinian territories during a United Nations Security Council meeting.
The meeting of the 15-member panel also occurs as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict appears to have spiralled into new spasms of violence since the beginning of the year. She said 2022 was the deadliest year since the second Palestinian intifada, or uprising, which occurred roughly between 2000 and 2005.Several Security Council envoys including from Britain, China, France and Russia also denounced the spike in violence, and voiced concern that Israel’s Knesset has passed legislation overturning significant portions of the 2005 disengagement law.
Sunday remarks in Paris by Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, part of Benjamin Netanyahu’s hard-right government, in which he denied the existence of a Palestinian people were also denounced by council members.
