Palestinians want UN action against Israel

None

The Palestinians are hoping for a vote next week on a UN resolution demanding that Israel stop all settlement activities "immediately and completely," a Palestinian diplomat said Thursday.

 

The draft Security Council resolution, obtained by The Associated Press, would reaffirm that all Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory, including east Jerusalem, "are illegal and constitute a major obstacle to the achievement of a just, lasting and comprehensive peace." (AP)
