The United Nations Security Council is expected to vote on a resolution Monday that would demand an immediate humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

The vote comes after Russia, China and Algeria voted down a U.S.-sponsored resolution Friday that would have supported "an immediate and sustained cease-fire" in the Israeli-Hamas conflict.

Council members had disagreed over elements of the draft, and some highlighted what the United Nations called "glaring exclusions" despite having raised multiple concerns with the U.S. during negotiations.

Ambassadors largely supported swift action to bring food and lifesaving aid at scale into Gaza, where a U.N.-backed report raised alarms about famine as Israel continues to block and slow shipments.

Israeli Ambassador Gilad Erdan said the draft would have marked the first time any U.N. body condemned Hamas' attack on his country, but its failure to be adopted is "a stain that will never be forgotten".

The United States warned that the new resolution up for a vote could hurt negotiations by the U.S., Egypt and Qatar to halt hostilities, raising the possibility of another veto, this time by the Americans, the Associated Press reported.

The 22-nation Arab Group is pleading for the resolution to be supported on Monday. In a statement issued Friday night, the group asked council members "to act with unity and urgency" to avert further human suffering in Gaza.
