United States Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield was “horrified” that a few United Nations Security Council members “still cannot bring themselves” to condemn the Oct 7 attacks by Hamas on Israel.
Addressing the UNSC on Wednesday, she said her country could not vote “yes” on a text that did not condemn Hamas or reaffirm the right of all member states to protect their citizens from terrorist attacks.
“While this text does not include a condemnation of Hamas, this is the first time we’ve ever adopted a resolution that even mentions the word ‘Hamas’”, she highlighted.
