The United States, along with Qatar, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Jordan, and Türkiye have released a joint statement supporting a draft Security Council Resolution on Gaza. The resolution was drafted by the United States in consultation with other Council members and regional partners.

The statement highlights that the Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict announced on September 29 has been endorsed by this resolution. The plan was also celebrated and endorsed at a gathering in Sharm Al Sheikh.

According to the statement: "We are issuing this statement as the Member States that gathered during High-Level Week to begin this process, which offers a pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood. We emphasize that this is a sincere effort, and the Plan provides a viable path towards peace and stability, not only between the Israelis and the Palestinians, but for the entire region."

The countries involved expressed hope for quick adoption of the resolution. "We are looking forward to this resolution’s swift adoption," they stated.
