13 out of 15 U.N.
Security Council members supported Algeria's resolution.
Proceeding with a vote today was wishful and irresponsible, and so while we cannot support
a resolution that would put sensitive
negotiations in jeopardy, we look forward
to engaging on a text that we believe will
address so many of the concerns we all share, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador
to the U.N., via statement.
We just weren’t able to support a resolution
today that was going to put sensitive
negotiations in peril– and that’s what
we believe this resolution would do, John Kirby, National Security Council spokesman, via statement.

Given the situation on the ground, the

a green light to the continued slaughter, Zhang Jun, China's U.N.

The spillover of the conflict is destabilizing
the entire Middle East region, leading
to rising risk of a wider war, Zhang Jun, China's U.N.

Only by extinguishing the flames of war
in Gaza can we prevent the fires of hell
from engulfing the entire region, Zhang Jun, China's U.N.

In a shocking revelation, the Israeli Ministry of Military Affairs reports that over 10,000 Israeli forces have been affected by trauma in the ongoing Gaza conflict. The report highlights severe physical injuries, with 37% of troops suffering from limb trauma and 35% diagnosed with PTSD. Since the war began on October 7 last year, more than 300 Israeli forces have died. This escalation, which began as a response to the al-Aqsa Storm operation by Gaza’s resistance groups, has led to nearly 40,000 Palestinian deaths, predominantly women and children. As Israeli authorities release casualty figures sparingly, questions arise about whether the true cost of the war is being hidden. Hamas demands a ceasefire and the return of captives, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vows to continue until Hamas is eliminated—a goal deemed impossible by many. Explore the impact of this ongoing conflict and the controversy surrounding the reporting of casualties.

The head of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, has criticized cabinet ministers for not condemning rioters who recently breached military bases. The criticism highlights increasing tensions between the IDF and Israel's political leadership. The controversy began after a raid at the Sde Teiman detention facility in the Negev, where military police arrested soldiers accused of abusing a terror suspect. The ministers' lack of clear condemnation and their concerns about the raid's execution, including the use of masked officers, have intensified the rift between the military and government officials.

The Gaza Civil Defense has reported the loss of 79 aid workers since the onset of the Israeli offensive in early October, with the latest casualty occurring after an Israeli strike on a humanitarian safe zone at the al-Mawasi camp, which killed at least 90 Palestinians and wounded 300. This attack is considered the deadliest in weeks. The conflict escalated on October 7 following a surprise operation by Hamas, leading Israel to launch a full-scale war on Gaza and enforce a near-total siege, severely restricting essential supplies. The offensive has resulted in at least 38,664 Palestinian deaths and 89,097 injuries, worsening the humanitarian crisis. Limited access to food, medicine, and water has intensified civilian suffering and complicated rescue efforts. Despite international calls for ceasefires and aid, efforts at the UN Security Council to address the conflict have been hindered by vetoes, highlighting the urgent need for resolution.
