The United States stands alone in vetoing a UN Security Council resolution that called for "humanitarian pauses" to deliver aid to Gaza, citing the resolution's failure to mention Israel's right to self-defense. Russia responds by suggesting the issue be moved to the General Assembly, where no country holds veto power. The hosts characterize the U.S. veto as a technicality that serves as a further "triggering mechanism" for regional anger.
