Note
In the Fourth Committee of the General Assembly (the Special Political and Decolonization committee) the Syrian delegate mentions Israeli aggression in the context of a debate on peacekeeping operations. This brings the total to three UN Committees being used on a single day as platforms to condemn Israel. Syria also mentioned that peacekeeping operations should respect "state sovereignty and territorial integrity" -- so that states such as Syria can can do such things as rearm Hezbollah without interference.
