Veto by Russia and China: US ceasefire in Gaza failed
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.
