UN Security Council Resolution 478

Summary

• United Nations Security Council Resolution 478, declared that the 1980 Knesset law (the Jerusalem Law) declaring Jerusalem as Israel's "eternal and indivisible" capital was "null and void and must be rescinded forthwith". The resolution instructed member states to withdraw their diplomatic representation from the city as a punitive measure, which the few countries with embassies in Jerusalem did, relocating their embassies to Tel Aviv.
