US vetoes UN resolution calling for Gaza ceasefire

United States vetoed a United Nations resolution backed by the vast majority of Security Council members and many other nations demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. While thirteen members voted in favour of a brief draft resolution, put forward by the United Arab Emirates, Britain abstained from voting. The US Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations, Robert Wood, declared in the council that halting military action would allow Hamas to continue to rule and “only plant the seeds for the next war”.
