So, the U.N. Security Council passed Resolution 2728…which notes that the taking of hostages is prohibited under international law and demands the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. I don’t expect Hamas to do that, and I don’t think the U.N. Security Council does either. The other part of the demand is a ceasefire demand for the month of Ramadan, leading to a lasting sustainable ceasefire. The U.N. Security Council does expect, I’d imagine, Israel to do that, despite the fact the last pause in the fighting was interrupted by Hamas.
