Members of the UN Security Council raise their hands to vote in favour of a draft resolution to authorise an International Stabilisation Force in Gaza at UN headquarters in New York City. AFP
"This resolution does not meet the level of our Palestinian people's political and humanitarian demands and rights," the Islamist militant group said in a statement on Tuesday.
The statement also decried the establishment of an international force whose "mission includes the disarmament" of Palestinian groups in Gaza.
"The resolution imposes an international trusteeship on the Gaza Strip, which our people, its forces, and its constituent groups reject," the statement continued.
The UN Security Council voted late Monday in favour of a US-drafted resolution bolstering President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan that includes the deployment of an international force and a path to a future Palestinian state.
There were 13 votes in favour of the text, which Washington heralded after the vote as "historic and constructive," with only Russia and China abstaining -- but no vetoes.
