| |  | Iain McDowell 26 March 2024 | | | Good morning. There's a deepening rift between Israel and the US after the UN's call for a ceasefire in Gaza - our international editor Jeremy Bowen shares his analysis.

 Image: Reuters Biden decides that strong words with Israel are not enough Despite the passing of the UN Security Council resolution demanding an "immediate ceasefire" in Gaza and the release of Israeli hostages, the fighting goes on. The decision by the US not to block the motion has sparked an angry reaction from Israel, which insists the move "gives Hamas hope". But is it a surprise that it's come to this? Our international editor Jeremy Bowen says that while US President Joe Biden is deeply attached to Israel, he's been "losing patience with the way that it's fighting the war", with Gaza in ruins and famine looming. Other countries changed how they voted too. The UK abstained in previous votes but this time supported the motion. Jeremy says that if Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ignores the resolution, the US and others will have to respond. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

| 'China's threat to the UK' and 'brave Kate saves lives' After the government accuses China of targeting the UK with cyber attacks, the Mail says there's "fury" over the UK's "feeble rebuke". The cabinet is split on how to respond to the threat, reports the i. The UN's call for a ceasefire in Gaza is the Guardian's focus - it says the vote leaves Israel "isolated" from its allies.

The Mirror calls it "the Kate effect". See all the front pages. | | | |

Kong-gratulations to whoever tracked him down. | | | |
