US Vetoes UN Gaza Ceasefire Resolution
The United States has used its veto power to block a resolution at the United Nations Security Council calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. This action effectively thwarts international efforts aimed at de-escalating the conflict.
Impact of the Veto
The veto prevents the Security Council from formally demanding a halt to hostilities. This occurred amidst growing international concern over the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
The resolution sought to address the escalating conflict and the dire humanitarian crisis affecting the Gaza Strip, but it failed to pass due to the US opposition.
