The approved American resolution authorizes an International Stabilization Force to enter, demilitarize and govern Gaza while establishing Trump's 20-point ceasefire framework and a "Board of Peace" for oversight, though membership remains unspecified, The New York Times reported. Russia and China abstained rather than vetoing after Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Indonesia, Turkey and Pakistan backed the measure.

US Ambassador Mike Waltz called Gaza "hell on earth" before voting and described the resolution as "a lifeline," thanking Council members afterward for "joining us in charting a new course for Israelis, Palestinians and all the people in the region alike," according to The New York Times. Trump posted on Truth Social: "Congratulations to the World on the incredible Vote of the United Nations Security Council, just moments ago, acknowledging and endorsing the BOARD OF PEACE, which will be chaired by me, and include the most powerful and respected Leaders throughout the World," stating it "will lead to further Peace all over the World."

Implementation uncertainties persist with ongoing Israeli strikes in Gaza and West Bank violence outbreaks, The New York Times observed. Critical next steps include naming Board of Peace members and clarifying stabilization force command authority. The resolution indicates conditions "may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood" if Palestinian Authority reforms occur and Gaza reconstruction progresses.

Algeria's UN Ambassador Amar Bendjama thanked Trump for personal engagement while emphasizing Palestinian state aspirations shouldn't be overlooked, declaring "Genuine peace in the Middle East cannot be achieved without justice, justice for the Palestinian people, who have waited for decades for the creation of their independent state," The New York Times stated. Multiple Council members including France, Guyana, Pakistan, Slovenia and Somalia expressed concerns about absent clear Palestinian statehood language but endorsed the proposal to support political momentum and enable humanitarian aid.

Confronting armed Hamas fighters throughout Gaza represents major International Stabilization Force challenges since the resolution assigns military infrastructure destruction and terrorist weapons decommissioning responsibilities, The New York Times noted. Egypt, Indonesia, Turkey and UAE remain wary of troop casualties turning Arab public opinion against involvement. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated Sunday "our opposition to a Palestinian state in any territory has not changed," while Israeli UN Ambassador Danny Danon declared Monday "The demilitarization of Hamas is a basic condition of the peace agreement. There will be no future in Gaza as long as Hamas possesses weapons."

Last week's negotiations produced multiple resolution revisions amid substantial pushback from European and other Council members demanding Palestinian statehood and Board of Peace clarity, The New York Times reported. Russian and Chinese objections late last week nearly derailed proceedings entirely, with Russia drafting a counter resolution demanding outright Palestinian statehood. Both nations explained post-vote their abstentions resulted from resolution ambiguity and unanswered American demands for details. Russia's UN Ambassador Vasily Nebenzya characterized Monday as "a sorrowful day for the Security Council," calling the resolution "yet another pig in a poke" and accusing Washington of passing it by "twisting the arms" of members.
