It's reasonably well known that some UN Security Council resolutions were vetoed by two permanent members. Recent examples include Russia and China jointly vetoing resolutions on Syria and on Venezuela, but there are older precedents in this respect, e.g. the very first US veto (on Southern Rhodesia) was jointed with that of the UK.
But were any UN resolutions (or other matters) that were triple-vetoed by the permanent members?
