1. “We have welcomed the Israeli recognition that the attack on Beit Hanoun on 8 November was a mistake and have urged the Israeli authorities to complete the announced inquiry promptly and to make the results public. The reality is that only an end to violence can pave the way for progress towards lasting peace. Rocket attacks from Palestinian territory into Israel must be condemned and must stop. At the same time, Israel must ensure that short-term measures aimed at improving the security situation of Israeli civilians are carried out in accordance with international law and do not hamper the achievement of a lasting solution to the conflict. In this regard, we have continuously stated that the exercise of a State's right to self-defence must be proportionate.”

2. “Regrettably, Denmark was not in a position to support the draft resolution (S/2006/878) just considered. The draft resolution addresses issues of great concern to my Government. If it had included a more thorough recognition of the complexities on the ground, my delegation would have liked to vote in favour of the draft resolution. Denmark remains very concerned about the latest developments on the ground. We were shocked to learn about the tragic event in Beit Hanoun that led to the death of 19 civilians, many of them children. We deplore the fact that the recent Israeli military 3 operations in Gaza have taken a heavy toll in civilian lives.”
