Blinken returns to Mideast as Israel politics scramble push for truceThe United States announced Sunday it has requested a UN Security Council vote on its draft resolution backing a plan for an"immediate ceasefire with the release of hostages" between Israel and Hamas.
The United States, a staunch ally of Israel, has been widely criticized for having blocked several UN draft resolutions calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. That version, which was distributed to member states on Sunday and was seen by AFP,"welcomes" the new ceasefire proposal while stating, unlike in previous versions, that Israel has already accepted.
Following two resolutions mainly focused on humanitarian aid, the Security Council finally at the end of March successfully demanded an"immediate ceasefire" for the duration of Ramadan, which was achieved with the United States abstaining from the vote. Israel's retaliatory offensive has killed at least 37,084 people in Gaza, mostly civilians, according to the Hamas-run territory's health ministry.US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was heading back to the Middle East on Monday to push a ceasefire plan, but Israeli politics and silence from Hamas raised further questions on whether he can succeed.
But Hamas, which opened the war with a massive October 7 attack on Israel that triggered a relentless retaliatory campaign, has not formally responded. Gantz defied Netanyahu by visiting Washington on his own in March and has regularly met in Israel with Blinken, although a meeting on the latest trip was not immediately announced.The short-term effect of Gantz leaving the war cabinet could be removing a counter-balance to Netanyahu's far-right allies, who abhor any compromise and have threatened to quit if Israel accepts the ceasefire plan.
Under the plan laid out by Biden, Israel would withdraw from Gaza population centres and Hamas would free hostages. The ceasefire would last an initial six weeks, with the ceasefire extended as negotiators seek a permanent end to hostilities.
