UN Security Council now meeting on Gaza

The UN Security Council is holding an emergency meeting at this time on the worsening situation in Gaza.

French Ambassador Gerard Araud tweets that the meeting is being held at the request of council member Jordan.

A Jordan-drafted resolution obtained by The Associated Press expresses “grave concern” at the high number of civilians killed in Gaza, including children, and it calls for an immediate cease-fire, “including the withdrawal of Israeli occupying forces from the Gaza Strip.”
