UN, 16 Nov. Palestine wants a permanent ceasefire in Gaza Strip will continue to seek such a call from the UN Security Council, Palestine's permanent observer to the UN, Riyad Mansour, told reporters.
Earlier, the Security Council adopted a resolution from Malta calling for a humanitarian pause in the Gaza Strip, but the text does not call for a ceasefire or truce.
«This resolution is a small step in the right direction. It did not establish a ceasefire, but it is a step in the right direction. We want a permanent ceasefire. And we will continue to knock on the door of the Security Council,» Mansour said .
