In response to the UNGA's overwhelming support for a resolution providing a roadmap to implement the International Court of Justice's recent opinion on the illegality of Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory, Oxfam's Middle East and North Africa Director Sally Abi Khalil said:
"This historic vote has shown that the international community overwhelmingly recognises its obligations in ensuring the Palestinian people's right to self-determination and an immediate end to Israel's illegal occupation.
"The UN Security Council must uphold its obligation to enforce this sober, responsible and detailed resolution or forever undermine any remaining credibility by flouting the legal and political opinion of the UN."
