The United Nations Security Council is likely to vote on Tuesday on an Algerian push for the 15-member body to demand an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war, said diplomats, a move the United States signaled it would veto.

“The United States does not support action on this draft resolution. Should it come up for a vote as drafted, it will not be adopted,” Thomas-Greenfield said in a statement on Saturday.

      That resolution was about humanitarian aid, and has been fully ignored and violated.

      Also the first ceasefire was vetoed by America because it “didn’t condemn Hamas”.

      Then Brazil submitted asimilar motion to call for a ceasefire AND condemn Hamas.** And then America vetoed it again.**
