Live updates: Israel breaks ceasefire with surprise airstrike, killing more than 400 Palestinians [1]

[]

Date: 2025-03

During a U.N. Security Council meeting Tuesday, Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian U.N. ambassador, said that Palestinians are once again being “killed indiscriminately” after Israeli strikes restarted overnight.

After the majority of the permanent members of the council condemned Israel, Mansour called on the U.N.'s highest body to act on their condemnations.

“This can never be justified and must stop immediately. I agree with you, Madame President, when you said that you have a responsibility to act,” Mansour said to Christina Markus Lassen, the Danish ambassador who is leading the council this month. “You are the Security Council. Act. Stop this criminal action. Stop them from denying our people food in the month of Ramadan, You have resolutions. Act. You have power. Act.”

He added, “Or as my friend, the ambassador of Slovenia said, you will become irrelevant.”
