MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Russian Foreign Ministry said in a statement that if the UN Security Council had adopted Russia's draft resolution on ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, the missile strike on the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City could have been prevented.
The ministry said that on October 16, the UN Security Council did not adopt the Russian draft.
“If the UN Security Council had adopted the Russian draft for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip on October 16, then perhaps the tragic missile attack on the Al-Ahli hospital complex... could have been avoided," it said.
