Two more resolutions to end Gaza violence fail at UN Security Council

Elected members to work on new draft resolution amid growing frustration at council’s failure to act.

The article is about how the United Nations Security Council failed to take action to address the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. Despite a worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, the Security Council could not agree on a resolution.

The United States proposed a resolution that called for a temporary halt in the fighting to allow humanitarian aid, protect civilians, and stop arming Hamas and other armed groups in Gaza. However, this resolution was vetoed by Russia and China.

A rival resolution from Russia, which called for a humanitarian ceasefire and withdrawal of Israel's order for Gaza civilians to relocate, also failed to gain enough support.

The article mentions that the situation in Gaza is dire, and there's a growing risk of the conflict spreading to the region. The UN General Assembly, where there are no vetoes, will vote on a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.

Israel's actions in Gaza, which include a blockade and extensive bombing, have resulted in a high number of casualties, and the conflict has been ongoing.

In simple terms, the United Nations Security Council couldn't agree on a plan to stop the violence between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, despite the worsening situation there. The United States proposed a plan for a temporary ceasefire and aid to civilians, but it was rejected by Russia and China. A different plan from Russia also failed. The General Assembly will now vote on a resolution for an immediate ceasefire. The situation in Gaza is very serious, with many people suffering, and the conflict has been going on for some time.
