Today’s Headlines: The United States vetoed a UN security resolution for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, with the US deputy ambassador, Robert Wood, justifying the vote as the resolution being "imbalanced." Wood criticized the council for not condemning Hamas's October 7th attack, stating that halting military action would allow Hamas to continue ruling Gaza and set the stage for the next war. The UK abstained, and the resolution had support from nearly 100 co-sponsoring countries in less than 24 hours.
