The United Nations General Assembly has overwhelmingly adopted a resolution backing a Palestinian bid to become a full member of the UN. It recommended that the Security Council reconsider the matter &quot;favorably.&quot;
                
The resolution was adopted on Friday with 143 votes in favor and nine against, including the United States and Israel. Twenty-five countries abstained.
                
The floor was filled with applause when the resolution passed, and delegates formed a line to share hugs with Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian Ambassador to the UN.
                
The Palestinians currently have non-member observer status. The resolution recognizes them as qualified to join fully.
                
Full membership needs a recommendation from the Security Council. However, the US delegation vetoed such a resolution last month.
                
In explaining his country&#039;s vote against the resolution on Friday, US Deputy Ambassador to the UN Robert Wood said: &quot;Our vote does not reflect opposition to Palestinian statehood; we have been very clear that we support it and seek to advance it meaningfully. Instead, it is an acknowledgement that statehood will come only from a process that involves direct negotiations between the parties.&quot;
                
Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz criticized the resolution. He said on social media that the UN made a distorted and disconnected decision. He added that the delegates are sending the message that violence pays off.
