Maldives Urges Immediate Arms Embargo on Israel to ‘Stop Genocide in Gaza’

The Maldives called on the international community to impose an immediate arms embargo on Israel, a plea made by Maldivian Chargé d'affaires Ambassador Dr Ali Naseer Mohamed at a UN General Assembly plenary meeting on the 'Use of the Veto'. He said a 20 February Security Council veto effectively gave Israel a licence to continue killing Palestinian civilians, with Gaza's health ministry reporting at least 30,717 Palestinians killed and 72,156 wounded since 7 October.
