The top UN Mideast envoy warned that the ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militants was “fragile” and the “cycles of violence” would only stop when an independent Palestinian state lives side-by-side with Israel.
Tor Wennesland called on Israeli and Palestinian leaders and the international community at an emergency meeting of the
Security Council on the latest violence “to strengthen diplomatic efforts to return to meaningful negotiations towards a viable
two-state solution”.
