UN Rejects U.S.-Backed Gaza Ceasefire Proposal Amid Criticism

The proposal, vetoed by Russia and China, was deemed weak and harmful to Israel, sparking debate over U.S. policy shifts.

John Bolton criticizes the Biden administration's Gaza ceasefire proposal, calling it weak and detrimental to Israel.
Russia and China vetoed the U.S.-backed UN Security Council resolution for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, highlighting perceived U.S. weakness.
The rejected resolution aimed for a ceasefire in exchange for the release of hostages taken by Hamas, without demanding Israel's accountability.
Critics argue the Biden administration's shift in policy towards Israel signals a departure from its historically strong ally stance.
The ongoing conflict in Gaza has resulted in significant civilian casualties and a humanitarian crisis, with calls for more effective international intervention.
