UN Security Council Vote On Gaza Cease-Fire
New York, NY, USA | March 25, 2024

The U.N. Security Council is set to vote Monday on a resolution demanding an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The vote comes after Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored resolution Friday that would have supported “an immediate and sustained cease-fire” in the Israeli-Hamas conflict. The United States warned that the resolution to be voted on Monday morning could hurt negotiations by the U.S., Egypt and Qatar to halt hostilities, raising the possibility of another veto, this time by the Americans.

Ramadan began March 10 and ends April 9, so just two weeks would be left if the resolution is approved
