THE US Senate has blocked a resolution requiring Donald Trump’s administration to report on the killing of nine Americans in the West Bank and Israel’s treatment of Palestinian children in military detention.

The resolution failed 47-53 on Tuesday, with senators voting largely along party lines.

It was brought by Senator Chris Van Hollen, who cited a “lack of accountability” from Israel’s government and an “inability to secure justice” from the US.
