United Nations Security Council Resolution 211, adopted on September 20, 1965, after the calls for a cease-fire in resolutions 209 and 210 went unheeded, the Council demanded one should take effect on at 0700 hours GMT on September 22 and that both forces would withdrawal to the positions held by them before August 5. The Council requested the Secretary-General ensure the supervision of the cease-fire and called on all states to refrain from any action which might aggravate the situation. The Council also decided that as soon as a cease-fire could be reached it would consider what steps could be taken to assist towards a settlement of the political problem underlying the conflict.
The resolution was adopted by ten votes to none, with Jordan abstaining.
