UN Palestinian Statehood Vote, Durban III Conference
The United Nations is preparing for a potential vote to recognize Palestinian statehood, a move the US intends to veto to avoid domestic political fallout. Tensions are also rising regarding the "Durban III" anti-racism conference and a UN report on the 2010 Turkish flotilla incident. The report reportedly found Israel's naval blockade of Gaza to be legal, though it criticized the use of "excessive force" by commandos.
