US Veto Sparks Global Outcry; Israel Ramps Up Attacks in Gaza

The United States vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza, drawing condemnation from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, human rights organisations and several countries. As the resolution was blocked, Israel intensified its bombardment of Gaza, with Palestinian health authorities reporting 17,700 people killed and more than 48,800 wounded since 7 October.
