Cairo, March 9 (RHC)-- The Arab League will present the United Nations with a resolution requesting an end to Israel’s occupation of Palestinian and Arab land.

The regional organization, which has drafted the document, said on Sunday that it would later submit the resolution to the UN Security Council. The draft urges Israel’s withdrawal from all occupied territories, including the Golan Heights in Syria as well as southern Lebanon.

It added that the draft also underlines the need for finding a just solution to the problems of the millions of Palestinians who have been forced to leave their country and live elsewhere.

The UN received a draft resolution by Arab states in 2014 calling on Tel Aviv to end its occupation of Palestinian territories by 2017. The move was, however, met with a United States veto.
