UN Security Council tries again this Monday to vote on a call for a ceasefire. The United States has until now systematically opposed the term “ceasefire” in UN resolutions, blocking three texts to this effect.
On Friday, Russia and China vetoed a draft US resolution emphasizing the "need" for an "immediate ceasefire" in Gaza. The latest version seen on Sunday by AFP "demands an immediate ceasefire for the month of Ramadan", which already began two weeks ago, should "lead to a lasting and permanent ceasefire"
