Mideast situation/Rockets attacks from Gaza – Letter from Israel

Identical letters dated 25 June 2012 from the Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council 

  

 Another reminder: 1 million Israeli civilians are living under constant rocket fire from the Gaza Strip. 

 •  Since my last letter four days ago (S/2012/472 of 21 June 2012) 87 more rockets were fired into Israeli communities. 
 •  We see the same reality, month after month: as aid flows into Gaza, rockets fly out. 
 •  The Security Council has not uttered a single syllable about this appalling terrorism. 

 Caution: The Security Council’s decision to stay mute could have grave consequences. 

 Inaction today could help ignite an escalation of conflict tomorrow. 

 I should be grateful if you would have the present letter distributed as a document of the Security Council.
