Russia, China block US resolution in security council on Gaza ceasefire
Friday, 22 March 2024 Russia and China blocked a US-proposed resolution seeking a ceasefire in Gaza. Moscow criticized the US, calling its efforts hypocritical and ineffective in pressuring Israel. The resolution aimed to support an immediate ceasefire and condemn the October 7 Hamas attack. However, Russia and China used their veto power, halting the resolution. The ceasefire hinges on talks led by Qatar, supported by the US and Egypt, to end the conflict and secure the release of Hamas-held hostages.
