UN Resolution 242 החלטה 242
UN Security Council resolution of 22 November 1967, after the Six-Day War. It called for the withdrawal of Israeli forces "from territories occupied in the recent conflict" and for the right of every state in the region to live in peace within secure and recognized boundaries. The English text deliberately left out the word "the" before territories. This formula of land for peace became the basis of the Camp David Accords, the Oslo Accords and the peace treaty with Jordan.Continue ▸
