UN General Assembly Demands Gaza Ceasefire, AOC Criticizes Biden Admin, UN Resolution 377A's Role in Israel-Gaza Conflict

The United Nations General Assembly is expected to demand an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, after the United States vetoed a similar move in the Security Council. The General Assembly resolution, although not binding, carries political weight and reflects global views on the war. The vote comes as health authorities in Gaza report a death toll of over 18,000. The United States and Israel oppose a ceasefire, believing it would benefit Hamas, and instead support pauses in fighting to protect civilians and secure the release of hostages.
