Article 99.

This is coolbert:

Article 99 of the United Nations Charter has been invoked. Will this mean anything?

The Gaza War will be brought to the immediate and urgent attention of the UN Security Council. Danger of the war escalating into a full-blown regional conflict too great with ramifications even beyond calculation. 

"UN chief Guterres invokes Article 99 of charter over Gaza crisis"

From the Hill | the article by MIRANDA NAZZARO | 12/06/23. 

"United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres on Wednesday invoked Article 99 of the U.N. charter for the first time, citing a 'severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza,' as the war rages on between Israel and the militant group Hamas."

"In a letter to José Javier De la Gasca Lopez Domínguez, the current U.N. Security Council president, Guterres said he expects 'public order to completely break down due to desperate conditions, rendering even limited humanitarian assistance impossible.'”

"The invocation of Article 99 allows the U.N. secretary-general to bring the attention of the security council to 'any matter which in his opinion may threaten the maintenance of international peace and security,' per the U.N."

That famous "what to do" refrain here most applicable! Well, what to do? The UN in most recent form figuratively toothless and impotent! That is the most common perception of the UN.
