New york: The UN Security Council is set to convene its monthly open briefing on Monday to discuss the ongoing situation in the Middle East, with a particular focus on the Palestinian issue. This session will be followed by closed consultations, providing members the opportunity to deliberate in a more private setting. According to Jordan News Agency, Ramiz Alekbarov, the UN Deputy Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, will provide a briefing to the council regarding the current circumstances. A significant point of discussion will be the Secretary-General's report on the enforcement of Security Council Resolution 2334, which calls for Israel to halt all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem. The Security Council presidency for the current month has confirmed that the implementation of Resolution 2334 will be a key topic during the meeting. This resolution explicitly demands that Israel immediately and completely cease all settlement activit ies, a matter that continues to be a contentious point in the quest for peace in the region.
