Hamas Rejects UN Gaza Resolution
(Al Jazeera) Hamas and other Palestinian factions in Gaza have rejected a UN Security Council resolution that establishes an international stabilization force in the territory, saying Tuesday that the U.S.-led effort "paves the way for field arrangements imposed outside the Palestinian national will." In its current proposed form, the international military force to be deployed in Gaza "will turn into a type of imposed guardianship or administration - reproducing a reality that restricts the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and to managing their own affairs." Mohammed Hamdan, a resident of Gaza City, told Al Jazeera he believes the Trump plan was not in the interests of Palestinians. "It would strip the resistance of its weapons," he said.
