Russia said, on Thursday, that each US veto on Gaza in the UN Security Council costs thousands of lives in the enclave, Anadolu Agency reports.

Expressing that the current situation in the Middle East is escalating every day and drawing in new countries in the region, Nebenzya said humanitarian resolutions by the UN on Gaza cannot be implemented without a ceasefire.
Nebenzya said the US does not hide that it perceives the Security Council “as a hindrance that should not get in the way” of its diplomacy.
Russia calls for a vote for the resolution to accept Palestine as a full member of the UN, he added.​
