Pandor heading to UN as she calls for end to Palestinian suffering amid armed conflict
International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor is on a working visit to New York to participate in the UN Security Council’s two high-level debates.International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor - according to her department - will call for the end of Palestinians'"suffering" and"displacement" during an official visit to the UN Security Council this week.
Speaking to Ubuntu Radio, the Department of International Relations and Cooperation's broadcast platform, Ambassador Mathu Joyini, South Africa's permanent representative to the UN in New York, said Pandor would lobby"like-minded countries" to"stop the movement and displacement of Palestinians in Gaza" when the Security Council holds its high-level debate on the Middle East conflict on Tuesday and Wednesday.
From the beginning of October, there has been a resurgence of the raging conflict between Israel and Palestine after Hamas - a military and political group that controls the Gaza Strip - launched attacks on Israelis, leading to revenge attacks and thousands killed in tensions that began when the state of Israel was formed from Palestinian land in the late 1940s. South Africans need to be in the know if we want to create a prosperous future.
