perspectiveWestern members of the United Nations Security Council are expected to frame regional stability as a combination of de-escalation, addressing security concerns related to Iran, and maintaining momentum for the Gaza framework established by resolution 2803.

perspectiveSome UN Security Council members hold the view that any approach focused narrowly on Gaza will be insufficient unless it is tied to a broader political horizon addressing the unity of the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT) and the viability of the two-state solution.

accountThe United Nations Security Council adopted resolution 2803 in November 2025, reflecting a moment of convergence shaped by regional support for the US-brokered Comprehensive Plan and a shared priority to consolidate the Gaza ceasefire and address the humanitarian catastrophe in the enclave.

claimThe UN Security Council faces the issue of preventing the regional crisis in the Middle East from further destabilizing Gaza and the wider Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), including by undermining the implementation of resolution 2803 and diverting attention from the ceasefire, humanitarian access, and transitional governing arrangements.

referenceThe 'Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict' (endorsed by UN Security Council resolution 2803) established a ceasefire in Gaza, secured the return of remaining hostages held by Hamas, and called for Israel to partially withdraw from the enclave and facilitate the entry of more humanitarian aid.
