The Security Council adopted Resolution 2728 by 14 votes in favour, with the United States abstaining. It demanded an immediate ceasefire for the month of Ramadan leading to a lasting sustainable ceasefire, the immediate and unconditional release of hostages, and expanded aid access. The resolution was a Council decision, unlike earlier General Assembly calls. The parties disputed its interpretation and fighting continued, underscoring the gap between international decisions and enforcement.
