US vetoes the resolution for immediate ceasefire in Gaza
The final vote is 13 members for, one abstention and one against.The US, a permanent member of the UN Security Council, is the sole nation to vote against. Its ally, the UK, abstained in the vote.
This means that the resolution has failed.

Reporting from New York
The United Nations vote on the Arab and Islamic nations' Israel-Gaza ceasefire resolution (which has 54 co-sponsors and counting) has been moved to 22:30 GMT.
The vote time was changed because of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's meeting with Arab ministers in Washington DC.
The UN debate will still take place at 15:00 GMT.
