The UN General Assembly on Thursday adopted a new non-binding resolution that demanded an "immediate" stop to Russia's war in Ukraine.
In a vote at UN headquarters in New York, 140 countries voted in favor, 38 abstained and five voted against the measure, which follows on the heels of a March 2 resolution that similarly demanded Russia immediately cease its use of force.
