A UN Security Council vote saw 11 out of 15 members support the resolution, while Pakistan and Colombia abstained, falling just short of the required nine votes for passage.
Despite the initial momentum, China and Russia, as permanent members with veto power, chose to exercise their authority, effectively blocking the resolution.
The resolution, which had undergone significant revisions, aimed to authorize member states to use force to secure the Strait of Hormuz under Article 7, but Russia and China strongly opposed this provision.
As a result, the final version of the resolution focused on encouraging states to coordinate defensive efforts for commercial maritime routes through the Strait of Hormuz, a significant departure from the original proposal.
Bahrain had hoped that this toned-down version would persuade Russia and China to abstain, allowing the resolution to pass, but their efforts were unsuccessful.
The veto cast by Russia and China has underscored their unwavering support for Iran, with the two nations arguing that the resolution was overly critical of Iran.
