These states reaffirmed calls to ban arms exports to Israel, refuse weapons at ports, and for South Africa to lead a push for an energy embargo. These measures reflect formal commitments, though analyst Moulana Ebrahim Moosa cautioned that \u201cit needs to be seen how far those will be taken,\u201d during this week\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/on.soundcloud.com\/vVLieslWsbVVXh008b\">Palestine Report<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Hague Group\u2019s meeting on the side-lines produced a public \u201cChair\u2019s Statement\u201d reaffirming international legal obligations to prevent genocide and to hold Israel accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas was kept from attending the UNGA in person due to visa denial. In his remarks via video link, Abbas denounced Hamas\u2019s October 7 operation as antithetical to the people\u2019s will and called for Hamas to relinquish control to his administration.<\/p>\n<p>As Moulana Moosa noted, Abbas \u201csaid that Hamas will not have a role to play in governance of Gaza \u2026 Hamas should hand its weapons over to the Palestinian Authority.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to some analysts, one of the UN\u2019s boldest contributions came via Colombia\u2019s President Gustavo Petro, who urged the formation of a global armed force to defend Palestinians\u2014asserting that denunciations alone were no longer adequate. Petro\u2019s public participation even included taking to the streets of New York, prompting the U.S. to bar his re-entry.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. President Donald Trump has presented a 21-point plan for peace in Gaza, which calls for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all remaining hostages, and a phased Israeli withdrawal. The plan, presented to Arab and Muslim leaders last week, supposedly aims to create a pathway toward a Palestinian state after a transitional period of international administration in Gaza.<\/p>\n<p>The key components include that all detainees held by Hamas must be released within 48 hours of an agreement. In exchange, Israel would release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Additionally,\u00a0Hamas would be removed from power and its military infrastructure dismantled. A transitional administration of Palestinian technocrats, monitored by a new international committee led by the US, would run Gaza until the Palestinian Authority (PA) completes reforms.<\/p>\n<p>Moulana Moosa warned of a possible showmanship strategy behind Trump\u2019s 21-point \u201cday after Gaza\u201d plan \u2014 a \u201cgood cop, bad cop\u201d approach intended to shift attention away from Israel\u2019s operations on the ground. He flagged tensions over conflicting narratives about which delegations stayed or left during Netanyahu\u2019s speech, and the unclear role of certain leaders such as Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, both in his verbal criticism and his questionable backstage engagements.<\/p>\n<p>Moulana Moosa painted a dire and escalating picture of the situation on the ground in Gaza City. He said that Israeli forces are now moving into key sectors of Gaza City such as Sabra, Tal al-Hawa, Sheikh Radwan, and Nasser, pressing into the remaining population centres where hundreds of thousands are displaced.<\/p>\n<p>Israeli strategy is deliberately divisive: offering to empower local clans and armed auxiliaries in Gaza\u2019s neighborhoods\u2014but striking those who refused. At the same time, the Qassam Brigades said they had lost contact with some Israeli prisoners and issued warnings that they could no longer guarantee safety if Israeli troops did not withdraw in 24 hours. Meanwhile, reports indicate there was a resurgence of resistance attacks across Gaza City over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The Global Sumud Flotilla, carrying over 500 activists, is estimated to be roughly four days\u2019 sail from Gaza. The mission, which is one of unprecedented size, seeks to pierce Israel\u2019s naval blockade and is entering what is called the Orange Zone, where past attempts have faced forceful interception.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, Turkish drones are reported to be accompanying the flotilla in a protective capacity.<\/p>\n<p>Moulana Moosa highlighted a parallel \u201cFreedom Flotilla\u201d carrying European parliamentarians and humanitarian aid.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat particular fleet carries about 60 people, including French and European parliamentarians,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He acknowledged strategic frustrations about reduced media attention, loss of momentum, or possible sabotage of some vessels, but insisted these constraints may be deliberate security measures to prevent Israel from pre-empting the mission.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Listen <\/strong>to the <a href=\"https:\/\/on.soundcloud.com\/vVLieslWsbVVXh008b\">Palestine Report<\/a> on Sabaahul Muslim with Moulana Sulaimaan Ravat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>29 September 2025 | 11:30 CAT 4-minute read UN Walkouts, Legal Alliances and the Global Sumud Flotilla Netanyahu\u2019s UN speech was met with mass walkouts, highlighting Israel\u2019s growing isolation on the world stage. 34 states, co-chaired by South Africa and Colombia, reaffirmed measures like arms embargoes and energy sanctions to halt Israel\u2019s assault on Gaza.
