The UN Security Council today adopted a resolution condemning Iran's strikes on neighboring countries in response to attacks by the United States and Israel. The resolution, proposed by Bahrain on behalf of the Gulf Cooperation Council, was supported by 13 Security Council members, with two – Russia and China – abstaining.
The resolution, co-sponsored by 135 states, according to a representative of Bahrain, demands that Iran immediately cease attacks on neighboring countries. The document's authors call these actions by the Islamic Republic a violation of international law and a serious threat to international security.
Russia proposed its own draft resolution condemning all attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure and calling on all parties to cease violence.
The Russian draft failed to garner the required number of votes. Only four delegations voted in favor—Russia itself, China, Pakistan, and Somalia; two countries voted against, and nine abstained.
