# The United Nations says delays in implementing a Security Council-backed transition plan for Gaza will only increase suffering and undermine recovery. A resolution adopted last November endorsed the US peace plan to end the conflict, authorising the Board of Peace transitional authority, and backed an International Stabilisation Force, paving the way for Israeli withdrawal. UN Deputy Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, Ramiz Alakbarov, says the current ceasefire framework still represents the best opportunity to prevent renewed large-scale war and begin rebuilding Gaza.
