U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Linda Thomas-Greenfield said that “thanks to intervention by the United States, Israel has taken some important steps” toward addressing “the undisputed humanitarian crisis” in the Palestinian enclave.

“Still, Israel must ensure its actions are fully implemented – and its improvements sustained over time,” she told the U.N. Security Council.
