The Palestinian Authority has welcomed the UN Security Council's adoption of a resolution considering Israeli settlements as illegal and demanding Tel Aviv halt the constructions. The PA says the move is a blow to Israel's policy, and it will work with the international community to make sure the resolution is implemented. Israel is fuming over the US abstention vote on the resolution.
