NEWS REPORT:

A UN Security Council vote on a resolution calling for a surge in humanitarian aid and an urgent halt to the Israel-Hamas war was again delayed on Tuesday, a diplomat for a country on the panel told The Times of Israel.

The vote is now slated to take place Wednesday.

The council had scheduled a vote late Monday afternoon, but it was postponed until Tuesday to try to get the US to support the resolution or abstain.

“We’re still working through the modalities of the resolution,” US National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said Tuesday afternoon before the vote was delayed. “It’s important for us that the rest of the world understand what’s at stake here and what Hamas did on the 7th of October and how Israel has a right to defend itself against those threats.”

The US on December 8 vetoed a Security Council resolution backed by almost all council members and dozens of other nations demanding an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. The 193-member General Assembly overwhelmingly approved a similar resolution on December 12 by a vote of 153-10, with 23 abstentions.
