"Delays and Disapproval: UN's Struggle to Resolve Gaza Conflict"
TL;DR Summary
The adoption of a new UN resolution to provide aid to Gaza has been delayed due to two issues important to the United States: a reference to a cessation of hostilities and putting the UN in charge of inspecting trucks carrying humanitarian goods. The US has opposed language on a cessation of hostilities in the past, and there are concerns about bypassing Israeli inspections of aid. The resolution also calls for monitoring aid deliveries to Gaza. The US vetoed a previous resolution for an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza, and Israel has called for recognition of its right to self-defense.
