Tensions at the United Nations have escalated as Israel and Russia clashed over the ongoing Gaza conflict, with Iran strongly condemning the U.S. for rejecting a proposed ceasefire. The UN General Assembly has called for an immediate ceasefire to address the worsening humanitarian crisis, but the U.S. vetoed the measure, citing security concerns and ongoing threats from Hamas. Iran has accused the U.S. of enabling violence by siding with Israel. Meanwhile, Israel criticized the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), alleging that dozens of its 13,000 workers in Gaza participated in Hamas attacks, further complicating relations with the UN. These developments highlight deep divisions among global powers, leaving the path to resolving the Gaza conflict uncertain.
