The United States vetoed a United Nations resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza, with U.S. Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood arguing that it failed to address the root causes of the conflict. Today, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the death of five soldiers, prompting supporters to warn of more civilian deaths and destruction. The vetoed resolution was supported by many nations, with the U.S. being the only nation to vote against it.
