Quick Glance: Russia and China Veto US Cease-Fire Resolution
- Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored UN resolution on Friday calling for an immediate and sustained cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid for over 2 million hungry Palestinians.
- The resolution reflected a shift in U.S. stance, diverging from much of the world's push for an unconditional end to the fighting.
- While the resolution would have been officially binding, it would not have stopped the fighting or released hostages, but it would have increased pressure on Israel as its closest ally aligns more with global calls for a cease-fire.
- The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

Quick Glance: Chinese Coast Guard Clashes with Philippine Boat
- Chinese coast guard ships hit a Philippine supply boat with water cannons Saturday near a disputed shoal in the South China Sea, causing injuries to its navy crew members and heavy damage to the wooden vessel, Philippine officials said.
- The United States and Japan immediately expressed support for the Philippines and concern over Chinese aggression near the Second Thomas Shoal, which has seen repeated confrontations between Chinese and Philippine vessels.
- The high-seas confrontations have raised fears of a larger conflict involving China and the U.S., while Washington has conducted "freedom of navigation" operations in the area, a practice criticized by China.
- Despite overlapping claims by multiple countries, including China, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Brunei, the South China Sea remains a contentious area with ongoing territorial disputes.
