US vetoes Gaza ceasefire resolution for fifth time

On 4 June 2025, the United States vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate, unconditional, and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, blocking the measure despite 14 members voting in favor, including all ten elected members (E-10).

The draft, co-sponsored by countries including Algeria, Denmark, Pakistan, and South Korea, was halted by the US alone, using its veto power as a permanent council member.

This marks the fifth time the US has vetoed a ceasefire resolution at the Security Council to shield Israel since its war on Gaza bega

#Israel using internationally banned bombs in #Lebanon, chemists union says

October 7, 2024

"The Syndicate of Chemists in Lebanon (#SCL) warned yesterday that the extent of destruction and the depth of damage to buildings and the ground confirms the use of internationally banned bombs containing #DepletedUranium by #Israeli forces, warning of the risk of contracting many diseases as a result of inhaling the [#radioactive] dust caused by the bombing.

"It said in a 'very important warning” that it condemns “the barbaric aggression against civilians in Lebanon and the massacres being committed against the Lebanese people,' noting that the warning aims 'to raise awareness about the effects of inhaling the dust from Israeli bombings in several Lebanese areas.'

"'The extent of destruction and the penetration of buildings and ground by dozens of metres is evidence of the use of #bombs containing depleted #uranium, which has tremendous penetrating power,' it added.

"The SCL stressed that “the use of such types of internationally banned weapons, especially in densely populated #Beirut, leads to massive destruction, and their dust causes many diseases, especially when inhaled.'

"The SCL called on 'the international community to stop the aggression against Lebanon, and to stop the use of internationally banned bombs.'

"It also called on the Lebanese state to file a lawsuit with the #UNSecurityCouncil 'against the violations taking place on Lebanese soil and the attempted mass killings of innocent #civilians.'"

—Natasa Pirc Musar, President of Slovenia

You can help abolish the veto, as part of an urgently needed radical reform of the UN!
