US vetoes UN Security Council's Gaza ceasefire resolution as Hamas rules out hostage deal until war ends

ABC  

The United States has vetoed a UN Security Council resolution for a ceasefire in Gaza, drawing criticism of the Biden administration for again blocking international action aimed at halting Israel's war with Hamas. The 15-member council voted on Wednesday on a resolution put forward by 10 non-permanent members that called for an "immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire" and separately demanded the release of hostages.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, Hamas ally Hezbollah said it would continue fighting against Israel until the country's government showed "seriousness" in negotiations.
