00:00The UN Security Council adopts a resolution endorsing US President Donald Trump's plan
00:05to end the war in Gaza and authorizing an international stabilization force
00:09for the demilitarization of the Palestinian enclave. Israel and Hamas agreed last month
00:14to a ceasefire in the hostage-release deal as part of the first phase of Trump's 20-point plan
00:19for Gaza. But the UN resolution is seen as vital to legitimizing a transitional governance body.
00:26The resolution says member states can take part in the Trump-chaired Board of Peace
00:30that would oversee the reconstruction and economic recovery of Gaza. Hamas reiterates it will not
00:35disarm and argues that its fight against Israel is legitimate resistance, potentially pitting
00:40the militant group against the international force authorized by the resolution. The resolution has
00:45proven controversial in Israel because it references a future possibility of statehood for Palestinians.
