Some of the sources cited said they anticipated that the 15-member panel would adopt the resolution, though some countries were expected to abstain.
In order to pass, a resolution requires at least nine votes in favor and no vetoes by the United States, Russia, China, France, or the United Kingdom.
Israel waged the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas carried out the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm into the occupied territories in response to the occupying regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.
According to the Gaza-based health ministry, at least 11,250 Palestinians have been killed in the strikes, most of them women and children, and more than 29,000 others have been injured in the Israeli strikes.
Tel Aviv has also imposed a “complete siege” on Gaza, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
