Over 22,000 Palestinians have also sustained injuries.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe Gaza clashes reached their peak on May 14, on the eve of the 70th anniversary of Nakba Day (Day of Catastrophe), which coincided this year with the US embassy relocation from Tel Aviv to occupied East Jerusalem al-Quds.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nOn June 13, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution, sponsored by Turkey and Algeria, condemning Israel for Palestinian civilian deaths in the Gaza Strip.\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nPalestinian paramedics carry a wounded protester during a demonstration on the beach near the maritime border with Israeli-occupied territories, in the northern Gaza Strip, on October 22, 2018. (Photo by AFP)\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe resolution, which had been put forward on behalf of Arab and Muslim countries, garnered a strong majority of 120 votes in the 193-member assembly, with 8 votes against and 45 abstentions.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe resolution called on UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres to make proposals within 60 days “on ways and means for ensuring the safety, protection, and well-being of the Palestinian civilian population under Israeli occupation,” including “recommendations regarding an international protection mechanism.”\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nIt also called for “immediate steps towards ending the closure and the restrictions imposed by Israel on movement and access into and out of the Gaza Strip.”\r\n\r\n\r\n\t ","content_html":"
