Palestinian officials called the resolution an important measure to secure a permanent and comprehensive ceasefire, ensure uninterrupted humanitarian aid, and restore normal life in Gaza.
They urged its immediate implementation, highlighting the need to protect civilians, prevent displacement, and achieve the full withdrawal of Israeli forces.
