Russia and China on Friday vetoed a U.S.-sponsored U.N. resolution calling for “an immediate and sustained cease-fire” in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid to be delivered to more than 2 million hungry Palestinians.
The vote in the 15-member Security Council was 11 members in favor, three against and one abstention.

The U.N. is worthless and this was a waste of time.
This just gets stranger and stranger.
RE: Russia and China Veto US Resolution in UN for Immediate Gaza Cease-Fire
Who woulda thunk, Russia and China would agree with Israel??
no kidding
They're probably quite fine with letting Israel deal with taking out the trash.
“Who woulda thunk, Russia and China would agree with Israel??”
And on this, I agree with Russia and China. Wow.
That is what is so bizarre about it. There is no way they support Israel, at least in no reality I can think of. So is this just about poking an American eye?
More likely, China and Russia want the unrest to continue and escalate due to the perceived mistreatment of Gaza by Israel by the Left.
Russia and China want the US bogged down in another sandy toilet.
The idea they care about Israel is laughable.
Interesting days we live in…Perhaps BRICS hates HAMAS worse than Israel?
Agreed.
This is about Russia and China joining forces to diminish the US. Israel has nothing to do with it.
“You’re bweaking my barrls Hans, you’re bweaking my barrrls!”
I wonder who the abstention is?
The Health Ministry is controlled by Hamas without any external verification, so I would take their numbers with a boulder of salt. Also, no mention that the few entry points into Gaza are controlled by Hamas and that they take whatever aid comes through these points, removes what it needs for its own soldiers, and then sells anything that's left after adding a 16% tax on its value.
To me, the long run solution is for the IDF to roll in, eradicate Hamas to the last soldier, and let the Palestinians elect a new gov't.
Thank God for Russia and China.
HA ha ha.
When I saw that in the movie theater, both my buddy and I had tears coming from our eyes from laughing so hard!
I had no idea what that movie was supposed to be before I went to see it!
Unreal. DC is desperate to stop Israel from finishing off the last Hamas stronghold. Russia and China vetoed that move?
This isn’t even satire?
