Israeli occupation media continues to report on the feelings of dismay across "Israel" following the US' decision to abstain in the UNSC vote.

The Diplomatic Correspondent at the Israeli occupation's Kan TV, Gili Cohen, claimed that "the US' refraining from using its veto in the Security Council is like it using a 'yellow card' against Israel."

Moreover, the Israeli news outlet's correspondent noted that "this reflects growing criticism of Israeli policy, a criticism that was expressed in Blinken's meetings in Israel and in the words of Vice President Kamala Harris to ABC."

This comes after the Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to allow the Israeli delegation to head to Washington after the US refused his request to veto the UN Security Council resolution.

At the time, Netanyahu's statement also noted that Washington's failure to use the veto was a "clear retreat" from its earlier position and would jeopardize the war on Gaza and the "efforts to release over 130 captives."

The US is "very disappointed" by the cancellation of an Israeli delegation's scheduled visit to discuss concerns about a possible attack on Rafah, the White House announced.

National Security Council Spokesperson John Kirby told reporters that the US was disappointed they would not be able to have a "fulsome conversation" about the "viable alternatives" to a Rafah attack.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Monday that he will not send a team to Washington after the US declined to veto a United Nations Security Council measure calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, opting instead for an abstention.

Following the vote, the United Nations Security Council requested an immediate ceasefire between the Israeli occupation forces and the Palestinian Resistance, as well as the immediate and unconditional release of all captives.

The resolution was sponsored by the body's ten elected members, and the remaining 14 council members voted for it.

US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield claimed that the US was "working around the clock" to drive "diplomacy on the ground," adding that a ceasefire could only take effect if the Palestinian Resistance movement, Hamas, released the first captive.
