    Danny Danon told reporters Tuesday that he believes “we will get a majority no matter what.”

    The 193-member General Assembly is scheduled to vote on the U.S. draft resolution on Thursday afternoon.

    It was amended to gain support of the 28-member European Union, adding a reference to “relevant U.N. resolutions,” though not specific ones.

    Kuwait’s U.N. Ambassador Mansour Al-Otaibi said Arab nations will seek to have the resolution approved by a two-thirds majority rather than a simple majority.

    The draft resolution “demands that Hamas and other militant actors including Palestinian Islamic Jihad cease activity, including by using airborne incendiary devices.”
