Details
- He argues Israel has taken the concrete measures the Myanmar Order points to, detailing bakeries, food trucks at 109 a day over the last two weeks, water, field and floating hospitals, fuel at 180,000 litres a day and cooking gas at 90 tons per day (PDF p.50-52).
- He argues urgency is further defeated by decreasing hostilities — five brigades withdrawn — by Security Council resolution 2720 being implemented with a Senior Coordinator at work, and by Israel’s Co-Agents’ assurances that Israel remains bound by its international obligations (PDF p.52-54).
