US Vetoes UN Ceasefire Resolution as Israel-Hamas War Rages On

The United States vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, with 13 countries in favor, the US vetoing, and the UK abstaining. The UN chief warned of a breaking point as Gaza faces hunger and daily strikes, while the head of the main UN relief agency in Gaza said they are facing collapse due to constant bombardment and insufficient supplies. Images of detained men in Gaza sparked controversy, with Israel claiming they were Hamas members while Hamas accused Israel of kidnapping civilians. The IDF carried out strikes on 450 targets in Gaza, and the death toll has risen to nearly 17,500 Palestinians killed and over 46,400 injured.
