place after the secretary general antonio guterres used a rarely invoked article of the un charter. article 99 to bring to the attention of the security council threats to international peace and security. he urged the council to call for a ceasefire because he said there was a risk of the total collapse of the humanitarian system that he anticipated a complete breakdown of public order. and he laid out in stark terms the desperate situation in gaza, that there was no protective protection of civilians, there. that they were running out of food, at risk of starvation, that the health system was collapsing, most of the population displaced and more than 17,000 palestinians have been killed. so here we saw the majority of the council supporting that call by the secretary general, but despite that, the united states again cutting an extremely lonely figure in the council, raised its hand to block this draft resolution to veto it. and united states said they did not support a
this is a country that i have wanted to visit for years, partly because i ve never been to central america, but also i ve heard so many good things about this place. rainforests, amazing beaches and colourful animals. but i m starting myjourney somewhere a little bit different. the capital sanjose. this is a proper capital city. it s loud, it s bustling, there s people everywhere. and it s pretty congested. buses are the cheapest way to get around here. excuse me. sorry. can we get on? over there? 0k, great. even if they re a little confusing to a first timer. hola. thank you. hablas ingles? how many stops? cinco? cinco, yeah? 0k. he sighs made it. well, that was fun. a bit sticky and flustered, i m heading to a more peaceful spot. for many visitors, sanjose is just an entry point to then go and see the rest of the country s incredible landscapes. but i m about to meet a man who lives and breathes the city, and says there s plenty here worth sticking around for. roberto. he
now, as nathan said earlier, one of the problems with smart home devices has been that they traditionally all come with their own apps. so getting them all working together has been, um, one for the enthusiasts, shall we say? samsung is aiming to simplify that by allowing anything from any manufacturer to connect to its smartthings app. this, incidentally, is the new home view screen, which will be launched in europe in early 202a. smartthings is an open platform that currently interfaces with 350 brands and which any manufacturer can hook into. sounds very altruistic, but, of course, bringing all devices into samsung s ecosystem is no bad thing for the company, either. if your device allows for lots of controls and returns lots of information, all of this should be available through the app, which means you can keep an eye on your dinner if your oven has a pizza cam, for example. and whose doesn t? you re providing a free platform, you re collecting data, so i think a questi

this was the scene in new york earlier. despite 13 nations voting for a ceasefire, the united states veto means the resolution failed to pass. earlier, the un secretary general warned that the people of gaza are at breaking point. israel says any ceasefire would cement hamas control of gaza. hamas is designated a terrorist organisation by many countries, including the uk. meanwhile, more video has emerged showing dozens of palestinian men detained by israel. the footage, verified by the bbc, shows them stripped to their underwear, kneeling on the ground and being guarded by israeli soldiers. it s understood that some of the men have since been released. we ll speak to our correspondent at the united nations shortly, but first, here s out international editor, jeremy bowen. gaza is at breaking point, says the un. almost 2 million people have been driven from their homes by israeli forces. in deir al balah, the mosque was bombed with such force that the yafa hospital next doo
