In the Security Council, 12 countries voted for a UN resolution recommending full Palestinian membership, with the US opposing and two countries abstaining.

The US argued that Palestinian membership should result from negotiations between Israel and Palestinians to enable a two-state solution.

The Palestinian delegation emphasized that UN membership is a crucial step for peace in the region and criticized the Israeli government for its rejection.

Israel rejected the resolution and warned of its potential impact on future dialogues, especially in light of the recent escalation of violence in Gaza.

Quick Glance: Western States Utilize Turkey as Intermediary for De-escalation Messages to Iran: Diplomat

Recently, Western states have attempted to communicate messages to Iran via Turkey to reaffirm calls for de-escalation, as reported by a Western diplomat on Friday.

These messages were transmitted before the reported Israeli attacks on Iran early Friday, resulting in Tehran stating it had no intentions for additional retaliation.

Following Iran's retaliatory strike on Israel over the weekend, Turkey's foreign ministry acknowledged engagements with Iran and the United States, emphasizing the need for restraint and cautioning against a potential regional conflict with further escalating tensions.

Acting US Under Secretary of State John Bass visited Ankara earlier this week and held discussions with Turkey's top diplomat Hakan Fidan. A US official mentioned: 'They deliberated on the crucial importance of averting additional escalations or a broader conflict in the region.'

The heightened tensions bring fresh uncertainty and fuel concerns that high oil prices and potential supply disruptions will keep inflation high.

Energy stocks benefit from higher oil prices, while demand for safe-havens like US or German bonds rises amid renewed inflation risks from rising oil.

Quick Glance: Trump's Hush Money Trial: Opening Statements Scheduled for Monday

The completion of the final jury selection for Donald Trump's hush money trial occurred, with an appellate judge rejecting the former president's latest attempt to stop the case.

The accusation against Trump involves a system to conceal negative stories that could harm his 2016 campaign. Trump has pleaded not guilty, asserting the falsehood of the stories.

Despite prior failed attempts to delay the trial, a lawyer for Trump argued in court that the jury selection was rushed, but the court denied this claim.

Throughout the trial, Trump utilized the prosecution as a political rallying cry, presenting himself as a victim while managing his dual role as both a defendant and a presidential candidate.
