The US vetoed a UN resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, asserting it would have emboldened Hamas and undermined peace efforts.
Danny Danon, Israel's UN ambassador, stated that the resolution was a 'road map to more terror, more suffering,' emphasizing the need for security.
Robert Wood, US deputy ambassador, declared that the US stance necessitated a relationship between a ceasefire and the release of hostages from Gaza.
The conflict, ignited by Hamas' assault on 7 October, has resulted in catastrophic civilian casualties, with nearly 44,000 deaths reported in Gaza.
