    United Nations Security Council Resolution 228 was adopted by the United Nations Security Council on November 25, 1966, after hearing statements from representatives of Jordan and Israel, as well as a report from Secretary-General U Thant. The Council determined that the incident constituted a large-scale, carefully planned military action against Jordanian territory by the armed forces of Israel.

    The Council deplored the loss of life and property and censured Israel for this violation of the Charter of the United Nations and the Armistice Agreements. The Council emphasized to Israel that further military actions will not be tolerated.

    The resolution passed with 14 votes to none. New Zealand abstained.
