Israel Vs Russia Face-off At UN: Iran Fumes As U.S Rejects Gaza Ceasefire Proposal

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. #IsraelVsRussia #UNFaceOff #IranFumes #USRejectsCeasefire #GazaCeasefireProposal #UNRWAControversy #IsraelBlastsUNRWA #MiddleEastConflict #UNDebates #IsraelPalestine #RussiaVsIsrael #UNResolution #CeasefireDebate #GazaCrisis #DiplomaticTensions ~HT.178~PR.152~GR.124~

‘Trump’s Deal Bad’: Netanyahu Faces Fiery Backlash; Hundreds Protest Ceasefire Deal in Jerusalem

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing intense criticism following the approval of a ceasefire deal with Hamas, which has sparked protests across Jerusalem. Thousands of demonstrators, including far-right groups, gathered to express their opposition to the deal, which they view as a concession to Hamas. Protesters have labeled the agreement, reportedly influenced by U.S. President Donald Trump’s stance, as detrimental to Israel’s security. Netanyahu’s government has been accused of compromising national interests, with hardline ministers and political opponents pushing back against the terms of the ceasefire. The growing public backlash signals deep divisions within Israel over the approach to peace and military strategy. #NetanyahuBacklash #TrumpDeal #IsraelProtests #CeasefireDeal #JerusalemProtests #NetanyahuCriticism #HamasDeal #IsraelPolitics #NetanyahuControversy #TrumpInfluence #ProtestsInJerusalem #FarRightProtests #IsraelSecurity #IsraeliGovernment #IsraelPeaceDeal Also Read Ahead Of Trump's Inauguration, Israel Government Approves Ceasefire-Hostage Deal With Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-govt-approves-ceasefire-prisoner-exchange-deal-with-hamas-days-before-trump-assumes-office-011-4045585.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Security Cabinet Approves Ceasefire In Gaza, Move To Pause 15-Month War :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-security-cabinet-approves-ceasefire-in-gaza-move-to-pause-15-month-war-4045183.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Cabinet Postpones Key Vote For Ceasefire In Gaza To January 18 :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israels-cabinet-postpones-key-vote-for-ceasefire-in-gaza-to-january-18-announced-netanyahu-011-4044645.html?ref=DMDesc
