US vetoes UN resolution demanding a cease-fire in Gaza because there's no link to a hostage release

The council voted overwhelmingly in favor of the resolution - 14 of its 15 members Voted "yes" including U.S. allies Britain and France - but it was doomed by the veto.

U.S. Deputy Ambassador Robert Wood said the United States worked for weeks to avoid a veto of the resolution sponsored by the council's 10 elected members, and expressed regret that compromise language was not accepted.
