<h5>Wars are bad!</h5><p>War is really bad. It destroys everything - cities, nature, lives, etc. Imagine if you had to leave your home, friends, and school because of a war. That would be really sad, right?</p><p>Well, that's what's been happening in Gaza because of a war between <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.newsahoot.com/articles/israel-hamas-ceasefire-what-do-we-know">Israel</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.newsahoot.com/articles/israel-s-iron-dome-overwhelmed-by-repeated-attacks">Hamas</a>. But there's some good news after all!</p><h5>The war is stopping!?</h5><figure class="image"><img src="https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/newsahoot.appspot.com/o/unsc-passes-ceasefire-resolution%2FUNSC.jpg?alt=media&amp;token=7a7ec171-45ef-42ef-af6b-50a6b2745132"><figcaption>The passing of the resolution. Photo by United Nations.</figcaption></figure><p>Yes and no. The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) has asked that the fighting in Gaza be stopped for a little while. All hostages also must be allowed to return to their homes.</p><p>This development comes after most members of the UNSC voted in its favour. The United States chose to abstain from voting on this.</p><h5>Is the US close to Israel?</h5><div class="raw-html-embed"><figure> <video width="100%" controls=""> <source src="https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/newsahoot.appspot.com/o/unsc-passes-ceasefire-resolution%2FUNSC%20Vote.mp4?alt=media&amp;token=557b8582-6dce-474d-bf22-ef5bc6bed92f" type="video/mp4"> </video> <figcaption>A video on the voting result announcement.

However, this time, they neither rejected nor supported the plan.</p><h5>Will Israel follow the decision?</h5><p>All countries have to do what the UNSC says, or they'll get in trouble. Now, it's Israel's turn to do better and stop the war.</p><p>The Palestinians have suffered a lot from all the damage and people dying. We hope the war will stop forever soon.</p>
