The United States has vetoed a U.N. Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire in the war in Gaza because it was not linked to an immediate release of hostages taken captive by Hamas last year.
A home in Palm Coast was raided by the Flagler County SWAT team, which led to the discovery of suspected explosive devices, drugs and guns.
The resolution that was put to a vote “demands an immediate, unconditional and permanent cease-fire to be respected by all parties, and further reiterates its demand for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.” Stressing the tens of thousands of Palestinian deaths, Bamya asked, “Do they have the right to kill, and the only right we have is to die?”Israel’s U.N. ambassador, Danny Danon, countered that the resolution “was not a path to peace, it was a road map to more terror, more suffering and more bloodshed.”
In a statement, Hamas strongly condemned the veto, claiming the United States again demonstrated “its direct involvement in the aggression against our people, acting as an accomplice in the killing of children and women and the complete destruction of civilian life in Gaza.” The Palestinian deputy ambassador put the blame on Israel, saying, “It is pretty clear that Israel had never an intention to accept a cease-fire, and has found every reason not to have a cease-fire.”
