The United Nations Security Council has approved a resolution for a cease-fire in Gaza, with the United States abstaining from the vote. As a result, Israel canceled a high-level delegation visit to Washington, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the US of retreating from a principled position. The US stated it abstained because the resolution did not condemn Hamas. While the resolution demands the release of hostages, it does not make it a condition for the cease-fire. Hamas welcomed the UN's move but said the cease-fire needs to be permanent.

The US decision to abstain comes during a growing tension between President Joe Biden’s administration and Netanyahu. The White House accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of creating a crisis in US-Israel ties over the adoption of the resolution. Conditioning aid to Israel is not currently being considered, and the Biden administration will continue discussions with Israel on alternatives to a major Rafah invasion.
