a deliberate attempt to deprive civilians of food and water a video and the security council is expected to vote in a new resolution calling for an urgent and sustainable seats far in johnson. the vote was originally expected on monday evening, but it's been postponed until tuesday. it sounds days after the un general assembly passed a non binding resolution calling for the humanitarian sees far more than 19000 people have been killed since israel began its war in october. deborah alexander was following developments of the united nations. some of the security council members behind the scenes are doing closed door negotiations, if you will, at this very hour, to try to come up with a different draft or wording that would be acceptable to the united states. the key sticking point we believe, of course, is, is sation of hostilities the united states and israel say that any resolution that
7:18 am
has those words and it is a can to a cease fire. and they say that would only benefit from us. and so the us would reserve it's vito power as it has done in the past. so that is what we really think of the sticking points. and that's really what we're, we're thinking that they're trying to work out some sort of language there. it should also be noted though they're also in this resolution, it calls for the un to monitor all of the aid distribution in guys as well. that's something that's new in any of the previous security council. drafts never had that wording in it. the reforms on the security council or proposal history for and the security council been going on for many years now. but they've really come into focus here since october 7, primarily because the security council is tasked with maintaining peace and security around the world. that's really their mandate, if you will, but because these 5 permanent members, the u. s. being one, china and russia being 2 of the others can use their veto power and,
7:19 am
and russian, china have used it since october 7th to be co uh, resolutions by the united states and united states has used it at least twice since october 7th, as well to block, any sort of un security council resolutions, a code for a ceasefire. so this is the real issue here. and of course the general assembly just last week voted overwhelmingly a 153 countries in the general assembly voted for a resolution for a ceasefire. that's the opinion of the mass, the vast majority of the world. however, general assembly resolutions are not legally binding internet international law. however, the ones in the security council are, and that's why we're watching so closely for any sort of resolutions that come out of the security council. hundreds of protests as have gathered in new york in support of the people of jobs on demonstrations and taking a place across the city with targeting transport houses and sitting grand central
