China and Russia have vetoed a Bahraini resolution at the U.N. Security Council that called on states to coordinate defensive steps to protect commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.⁣
 ⁣
The failed vote comes after more than five weeks of conflict triggered by US and Israeli strikes on Iran, with Tehran largely closing the Strait and oil prices rising sharply.⁣
⁣
China has been dedicated to promoting a ceasefire in the Middle East in an objective, just, and balanced position as tensions are escalating in the region, said spokeswoman of China's foreign ministry Mao Ning on Tuesday.⁣
