Arab leaders turn to UN for resolving Golan Heights issue

Arab leaders said on Sunday they would push for a U.N. Security Council resolution against the U.S. decision to recognise the Golan Heights as Israeli and warned other countries away from any move to follow suit.

Arab states would submit a draft resolution to the U.N. Security Council and seek an opinion from the International Court of Justice "on the illegality and invalidity of the American recognition," they said in a statement issued after a summit in Tunisia.
