The world rallies behind Palestinian statehood
The United Nations voted 142 in favour, 10 against, and 12 abstaining on a resolution calling for the establishment of a Palestinian state, signalling broad international support for a two-state solution. A map shared by The World in Maps visually captures the moment: a sea of green stretches across much of the globe, with nations in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Latin America largely backing the resolution. Only a handful of countries, including the United States, Israel, and Argentina, voted against.
