Israel has rejected a request by the U.N. Security Council to come to Israel and assess lands the Palestinians demand be given to them for a Palestinian state, according to a report by Ynet.
Equitorial Guinea’s U.N. Ambassador and current UNSC president Anatolio Ndong Mba was authorized to pitch the idea to Israeli and Palestinian ambassadors.
The request came after the United States thwarted an Security Council statement promoted by Indonesia and Kuwait, and blocked by additional Arab delegates expressing regret that Israel did not renew the Temporary International Presence in Hebron (TIPH) mandate, which it has resigned every six months since 1994.
