The US said that its abstention in the vote for Monday's resolution was due to the resolution's failure to condemn Hamas.
Hamas leader Haniyeh welcomed the UNSC resolution demanding a ceasefire but failed to mention the obligation to release the hostages.
The threat comes following the passing of a UN Security Council resolution that calls for an immediate ceasefire.
"While the UN did lead a ‘fact-finding mission’ that corroborated these atrocities, it fell short of a true investigation."
The report presents the alleged genocide as "driven by a genocidal logic integral to [a] settler-colonial project in Palestine."
"The Biden administration’s failure to veto the resolution enabled this anti-Israel/antisemitic resolution to pass. Calling for an 'immediate ceasefire' enables Hamas’ terror army to survive."
Greenfield asked members of the Security Council and member states to speak out and demand that Hamas accept the deal on the table, but she didn't expect Russia and China to do so.
