Original Note:
US Ambassador explained the USA's veto saying “this resolution did not mention Israel’s right of self-defence” UK Ambassador said the UK abstained as the text ignored the fact that extremist group Hamas, which controls Gaza, is using Palestinian civilians as human shields. https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/10/1142507
