The Palestinian Authority's leadership presented a “program for ending the occupation” to the UN, proposing a timetable for the withdrawal of Israeli military units from certain areas within six months.

The document also proposes an arms embargo on Israel and personal sanctions against the country's leadership. A vote on this issue is expected to take place at a General Assembly meeting in the near future.

Israel's UN envoy has rejected Palestinian proposals, saying nothing will stop the country from carrying out an operation to free hostages in the Gaza Strip.

Israel does not intend to comply with the requirements of the “program for ending the occupation” and will carry out its actions in accordance with its own interests and the country's security. The situation in the Middle East remains tense, despite international efforts to resolve the conflict.
