Russia and China have vetoed a UN security council resolution calling for the Syrian president to step down, provoking a furious reaction.
All 13 other members of the council, including the US, France and Britain, voted in favor of the resolution, which backed an Arab peace plan aimed at stopping the violence in Syria.
From the UK Guardian:
