Hamas, the Palestinian political-military organization controlling Gaza, suddenly attacked southern Israel on October 7, killing about 1,400 people and kidnapping more than 200 hostages. Israel then retaliated against Hamas, killing more than 6,500 Palestinian civilians in Gaza as of October 26, according to Gaza health authorities.
The conflict has deepened divisions at the UN Security Council when two resolutions proposed by Russia and the US were not passed at this body on October 25. While the US and its European allies rejected calls for a ceasefire, Russia, China and many developing countries supported an immediate end to the conflict. Speaking at the White House on October 25, President Biden emphasized the "path to peace" between Israelis and Palestinians
Meanwhile in Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that the conflict could spread beyond the Middle East and that the world's main task right now is to prevent "bloodshed". "Otherwise, further escalation of the crisis will cause serious, extremely dangerous and devastating consequences. Not only for the Middle East, the impact could spread far beyond the region," Mr. Putin said.
