US Blocks Gaza Ceasefire Resolution at UN CouncilThe US cast its first veto since January, halting a resolution demanding unrestricted humanitarian aid and ceasefire in Gaza.
- The United States vetoed a resolution calling for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire along with unrestricted humanitarian access in Gaza.
- Multiple UN representatives condemned the veto as a moral failure and political obstruction that prolongs the conflict.
- Hamas denounced the veto as sanctioning aggression and humanitarian suffering, while Israel defended its right to self-defense.
- Following the veto, Palestine intends to seek a ceasefire resolution in the UN General Assembly where vetoes do not apply.
The veto marks a new stain on the ethical record of the United States of America.— Hamas condemned the 'disgraceful' US veto, reiterating accusations of 'genocide' in Gaza.
