Washington, which has a habit of protecting Security Council Israel, its ally, has opposed three draft resolutions since the start of the war in Gaza, including two calling for an immediate ceasefire, and believes the texts could undermine diplomatic efforts aimed at securing the hostages’ release. In the eyes of the United States, any draft resolution endorsing a ceasefire in Gaza must also call for the release of hostages held by Hamas in the enclave. In a symbol of a less ambiguous position, the United States abstained from two votes in the Security Council on texts urging an increase in humanitarian aid flows to Gaza and a longer pause in the fighting.
The Security Council will decide on the United States’ draft resolution on Friday morning “Innumerable Rounds of Consultation” with council members, said Nate Evans, spokesman for the American Mission to the United Nations.
