India abstains as UN body seeks arms embargo on Israel; resolution sought Gaza ceasefire too
Friday, 5 April 2024 India abstained from voting on a UN Human Rights Council resolution for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and an arms embargo on Israel. The resolution received 28 votes in favor and 6 against, addressing accountability for 'war crimes'. India's historic ties with Israel influenced its decision.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on May 5 that his government had unanimously voted to close down the local offices of Al Jazeera, a broadcaster owned by Qatar. Netanyahu announced the decision on X, formerly known as Twitter, but specifics regarding the implications, timing, and permanence of the closure remained unclear. This move marks an escalation in Israel's longstanding dispute with Al Jazeera and raises tensions with Qatar, particularly significant as Qatar is actively involved in mediating efforts to end the conflict in Gaza. Israel's contentious relationship with Al Jazeera stems from accusations of bias against the network.
