The Economic and Financial Committee of the UN General Assembly overwhelmingly approved a resolution reaffirming Palestinian sovereignty over natural resources in the occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, and the rights of the Arab population in the occupied Syrian Golan.
The decision was passed with 151 votes in favor, seven against, including the US and Israel, and 11 abstentions.
It demands that Israel stop the exploitation and destruction of natural resources, put an end to attacks that harm the environment of Israeli settlers, and recognize the Palestinians' right to compensation.
