China says US has given 'green light' to continue killing in Gaza after vetoing latest UN resolution calling for ceasefire. "The US veto sends the wrong message, making the situation in Gaza more dangerous," said Zhang Jun, China's ambassador to the UN.
This is already the third US veto of a Security Council resolution on Israel's war in Gaza. China is closely monitoring developments in Rafah, the city south of Gaza that Israel has described as the last stronghold of Hamas, focusing on a ground offensive.
