United Nations Security Council Resolution 2735

United Nations Security Council Resolution 2735, adopted on 10 June 2024, calls on Hamas to accept a proposed hostage and ceasefire agreement in the ongoing Israel–Hamas war. The resolution was presented by the United States, details the three-phase proposal and notes Israel’s acceptance thereof. The implementation of the described agreement would result in the release of all hostages held by Hamas, establish a permanent ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and advance a multi-year reconstruction plan. Additionally, the resolution rejects any demographic or territorial changes in the Gaza Strip and reaffirms the Security Council’s support for a two-state solution, envisioning the unification of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank under Palestinian Authority governance.

The resolution received unanimous support, with the Russian Federation abstaining from the vote.
