of seismic activity prompted to mast evacuations. about the scale of the option did take scientist by surprise, and they don't know when it will start the program. welcome to the program. once again, the un security council has postponed the votes on posing the financing and gaza and what was originally scheduled for monday. but now i expected on wednesday, an initial draft resolution call for an urgent and lasting cessation of hostilities to allow unimpeded access a few monetary and a go series. and i'm trying to find the compromise was an acceptable to the us, which is blocking the previous calls for c spy and their international pressure on each route. and tell strategies is growing as the humanitarian crisis is gone. so stevens let's bring a, corresponds into janelle,
10:02 pm
do little in the washington. welcome, janelle, so secondary, it is about being postponed. what's the holdup? indeed, that vote has been moving since yesterday moved several times today. the vote is now expected for wednesday morning, although who knows and might get postponed again. essentially, negotiators are looking for language that would keep us from vetoing a cease fire resolution and gaza. now, if you recall earlier this month, the u. s. that adjusts of that. it vetoed as the resolution, in contrast to the other un security council members who voted overwhelmingly in support of it. no negotiations are now ongoing because while the us said that a cat support a reference to a cessation of hostilities, it is pushing for water down language, calling for the suspension of hostilities. now in the last a draft
10:03 pm
a text made available of the this resolution. both the phrases were in that text. so 1st a call to for the urgent suspension of hostilities, followed by urgent steps towards the cessation of hostilities. but it's about word succession. that remains a sticking point for us negotiators. another sticking point of course, is that the u. s. wants to see the text in that resolution, specifically condemning home us for its actions on october 7. that text did not have that instead it had a more general condemnation of terrorist acts in the world, but were at a point where, especially the negotiators representing the arab states, are saying that they don't want to introduce any more changes to the draft unless so the u. s. promises not to veto and that the vote has been postponed again until wednesday morning shows you just how complicated this exercise is turning out to be
10:04 pm
. okay, so do we expect something a resolution of some form to emerge from this process, but the us will sign up to as well as the fact that these talks are going on for so long. it makes that hard to know. on the other hand, it shows that there really is a lot of distance to bridge between us negotiators and the others. on the other hand, it shows that the us is talking and perhaps can be moved on specific negotiating points. let's not forget that the us as options here aren't limited to voting in favor of the resolution or vetoing it. rather, it also has the option to abstain. now, because the resolution only requires 9 votes and o v, those, that would be a scenario where this resolution then gets through. and in addition, the very fact that the white house has indicated some flexibility with regard to
10:05 pm
the language means that to think that that already constitutes some kind of development from the more tightly position, from the more tightly held position that they held earlier. and that in turn, could reflect a growing and patients with israel as the u. s. face has more pressure to push israel to do more to protect civilians. but at a time where the homeless run health industry says the death toll is approaching $20000.00 u. s. urging is clearly not doing that much to change the picture, and that's for us bands increasingly low and in the community of nations who are overwhelmingly calling for a ceasefire. it really does have to review all the options that it has on the table when it comes to ways to push israel. so, you know, that's a long way to see. to say, we'll have to wait and see, feel. okay, thanks for that genetic. janelle do malone in washington, dc or a god as
