Senator pushes US to vote for UN Security Council resolution on Gaza

'The U.S. must vote YES,' Bernie Sander says ahead of vote

By Diyar Guldogan

WASHINGTON (AA) - Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders pushed the US to vote Tuesday for a UN Security Council resolution that seeks the suspension of hostilities in Gaza in order to deliver aid.

"Nearly 20,000 people have been killed in Gaza, 70% of whom are women and children. More than 50,000 have been wounded. The UN Security Council may soon vote on a resolution calling for a cessation of hostilities & the release of all hostages,” Sanders wrote on X. "The U.S. must vote YES."

His remarks came as the Security Council is preparing to vote on a resolution that demands the urgent suspension of hostilities to allow safe and unhindered humanitarian access and urgent steps to a sustainable cessation of hostilities.

The US vetoed a Security Council resolution Dec. 9 that demanded an immediate cease-fire to halt the bloodshed in the Gaza Strip as the death toll continues to mount.
