itemprop=description content=The US demanded condemnation for strikes against Israel ahead of emergency meeting.
The United Nations Security Council opted for no immediate action after an emergency meeting over the growing conflict between Israel and Hamas.
US deputy ambassador Robert Wood said “a good number of countries” had condemned the Hamas attack, telling reporters they could probably figure out one of those which had not. “The time right now is we’ve got to deal with the hostage taking, the violence that is going on that’s being perpetrated by Hamas,” he said. “We’ve got to deal with first things first.”
Chinese ambassador Zhang Jun said Beijing condemned all attacks on civilians as he headed into the meeting, although he did not mention Hamas.
