The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) held an emergency session Sunday, condemning Israel's proposed military takeover of Gaza City as a potential trigger for 'another calamity.' Delegates warned the plan could displace up to 800,000 residents—many already homeless—and worsen Gaza's humanitarian crisis. 💔
What’s in Israel’s Plan?
UN Assistant Secretary-General Miroslav Jenca revealed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s strategy includes disarming Hamas, releasing hostages, demilitarizing Gaza, and establishing a new civilian administration. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) would control Gaza City while offering aid outside combat zones—but critics call it a 'dangerous escalation.' ⚠️
Timeline of Tension
Reports suggest the IDF aims to surround Gaza City by October 7, with a three-month siege followed by two months of operations in central Gaza camps. This could leave over a million Palestinians trapped in what Jenca called 'catastrophic' conditions. Families face impossible choices as resources dwindle. 🏚️
Global Reactions
UNSC members urged immediate de-escalation, stressing that mass displacement violates international law. Meanwhile, humanitarian groups brace for shortages of food, water, and medical supplies. Will diplomacy prevail, or will Gaza face its darkest chapter yet? 🤝
