A Sputnik correspondent reports that the United States has once again blocked a draft UNSC resolution calling for an โimmediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire in Gazaโ and the release of all hostages.
The other 14 Council members voted IN FAVOR.
The text, drafted by the 10 non-permanent members, also urged Israel to lift restrictions on humanitarian aid and ensure its unimpeded delivery to civilians.
This marks the third US veto of similar drafts โ after earlier ones on November 20, 2024 and June 2025. UN Secretary-General Antรณnio Guterres expressed disappointment at the failure of the June resolution.

Justice ministers from Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger met in Niamey, Niger this week to prepare for a coordinated exit from the International Criminal Court, seeking to replace The Hague-based legal institution with a Sahelian Criminal Court.
The decision stems from the fact that the ICC is being used as a tool by the West against African nations, Amadou Tieoule Diarra, a top Malian legal expert closely involved in the Sahel Confederation memberโs legal and governance reforms, told Sputnik.
๐ฌ โThe International Criminal Court is being exploited by the West. In reality, what we are seeing is a so-called โspectacle of justiceโโฆThe principal of equality before the law has ceased to apply. It has failed thanks to double standards,โ he explained.
In reality, the West uses the court only to โdisciplineโ African leaders, Diarra added.
The idea of a Sahelian Criminal Court to replace the ICC is based on โa desire for emancipation and objectivity,โ according to the legal expert.
๐ฌ โCitizens of the Confederation of Sahel States will be able to identify with their judges. The Confederation reaffirms its commitment to principles based on the public interest,โ Diarra summed up.
