The U.N. Security Council failed to pass a resolution on the Israel-Hamas war, underscoring the tension and division within the council since the conflict broke out.

Russia and China vetoed a U.S. resolution that condemned the Oct. 7 attacks, called for the release of hostages and for humanitarian aid for Gaza.
