Alakbarov warned that the risk of renewed violence remains very high, while the situation in the occupied West Bank is heading toward further deterioration.


He described the second phase of President Donald Trump's comprehensive 20-point plan as "a vital step to consolidate the ceasefire in Gaza" and urged the Security Council to act collectively. This phase also includes the establishment of new transitional institutions, including the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza and the Office of the High Representative for Gaza.


At the same time, he emphasized that humanitarian needs remain extremely acute. Nearly the entire population of Gaza still requires humanitarian assistance, and more than 1.5 million displaced people are exposed to winter rains and severe cold. He added that humanitarian operations are still unable to operate at scale due to insecurity, access restrictions, and delays at crossings.


Regarding the occupied West Bank, he said the situation is on the verge of "collapse"; a situation accompanied by ongoing violence, settlement expansion, home demolitions, and the displacement of people.


He warned that these trends undermine the prospects for peace and could jeopardize progress in implementing the second phase of the ceasefire plan.


In closing, he stressed that the United Nations is committed to supporting Palestinians and Israelis on the path to achieving a two-state solution, in accordance with international law and United Nations resolutions.

Ramiz Alakbarov, a senior United Nations official, stated in a briefing to the Security Council on Wednesday, January 29, that the start of the second phase of the peace plan for Gaza could be a potential turning point for this war-torn region.
