Russia and China at the UN Security Council imposed the right of a veto to the US resolution, which calls for the cessation of fire in the gas sector. Earlier, the United States blocked resolutions calling for the cessation of fire in the region. In total, 11 out of 15 members of the Security Council voted for the document. The First Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia at the UN Dmitry Polyansky explained the decision by the fact that the text of the resolution “must contain a“ requirement ”or“ call ”[to the termination of fire of approx. editors], but not a "definition of necessity". "

The project of the resolution “resolutely condemned” the obstacle to the receipt of humanitarian aid in the gas sector. The draft resolution also considered an attack on a peaceful resident: NIC as a violation of international law and warned Israel on an attack on Rafa. Now in the city on the border with Egypt there are more than half of the total population of the gas sector.

At the same time, Israel is mentioned in the text only once - in a call for the creation of two states Two-State Solution . Israel stated that Hamas would help a constant ceasefire to win the war. Other states, including the United States, were limited only to calls for “humanitarian pauses”.
