The United Nations Security Council failed to approve a resolution on Monday introduced by Russia that would have pressured Israel to refrain from self defense against the jihadist terrorist organization Hamas, which brutally slaughtered over 1,300 civilians, many in their homes, on October 7. The resolution did not mention Hamas.
Russia received support from five countries on the Council – China, Gabon, Mozambique, and the United Arab Emirates – and four countries – France, Japan, the United Kingdom, and America – voted against the resolution. Brazil, which has introduced its own resolution on the crisis, as well as Albania, Ecuador, Ghana, Malta, and Switzerland, all abstained from the vote.
As a result of the failure of the Russian resolution, the Security Council has formally said and done nothing in response to the Hamas attacks. The Council is expected toagain on Tuesday to address and potentially vote on the draft resolution introduced by Brazil, which currently holds the presidency of the Council through the end of October.
