Rights groups criticize US after vetoing UN security plan for immediate ceasefire.
The United States has again vetoed a draft UN Security Council proposal for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
Washington’s decision was condemned around the world.
Jordan mirrored the view of many critics, calling the veto a license for Israel to continue a massacre.
