Security Council LIVE: Ambassadors meet over rising civilian deaths in Ukraine
The Security Council is meeting in New York for a high-stakes briefing on Ukraine, called by six members amid rising civilian casualties and renewed strikes on energy infrastructure as winter sets in. Top officials and a civil society representative are set to brief, alongside interventions from Ukraine, regional neighbours and the EU. It comes as Washington’s 28-point peace proposal is being revised following pushback from Kyiv and European allies, and after talks in Moscow and Florida failed to deliver concrete progress. Today’s meeting will gauge where diplomacy stands. Follow live below and UN News app users can click here. For in-depth meetings coverage, go here.
