The U_N_ Security Council has scheduled a vote Wednesday on a resolution which demands “an immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gaza respected by all parties.”

The United States vetoed on Wednesday a resolution presented by the ten non-permanent members of the UN Security Council to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza. This is the sixth time that the United States has vetoed a resolution critical of Israel since the outbreak of war in Gaza

The U.N. Security Council will vote Wednesday on a resolution demanding an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, and the Trump administration is expected to veto it because it does not link the ceasefire to the release of all the hostages held by Hamas.
