Play Video: Middle East, Lebanon/Humanitarian, Lebanon & other topics - Daily Press Briefing | United Nations

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: - Middle East - Lebanon/Humanitarian - Lebanon - West Bank - Occupied Palestinian Territory - Haiti - Deputy Secretary-General/Lesotho - Security Council - Democratic Republic of the Congo - Food Price Index - Chagos Islands - Resident Coordinator in Peru - International Days Middle East The Secretary-General is very concerned about the increasing toll on civilians that we are seeing across the immediate region. Beirut residential areas were once again subjected to intense overnight Israeli airstrikes, apparently injuring rescue workers. Also, strikes continued unabated in other parts of Lebanon. The toll on civilians from this campaign is totally unacceptable. All parties must do whatever they can to protect civilians and civilian infrastructure and ensure that civilians are never put in harm’s way. The UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeannine Hennis-Plasschaert persists with her intensive political engagements, while the UN country team is working closely with the Lebanese Government to meet spiraling humanitarian needs. Lebanon/humanitarian Given the worsening humanitarian needs, Imran Riza the UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Lebanon, today announced an additional $2 million from the Lebanon Humanitarian Fund to address the deteriorating situation, bringing the total allocation to $12 million so far. This comes alongside a previous $10 million Central Emergency Response Fund allocated very recently. Meanwhile on the health front, the World Health Organization announced today that the first flight with WHO medical supplies – enough to treat tens of thousands of injured people – has arrived in Beirut. More flights are planned for today and in the coming days. This all comes as the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs remains concerned about the safety and well-being of civilians as the country experiences a surge in airstrikes and displacement orders. There were new orders given by the Israelis in the south, for areas above the Litani River and areas such as El-Buss - which hosts a Palestinian refugee camp – that forced families to flee from areas previously considered safer. Civilians on both sides of the Blue Line in Lebanon and in Israel, must be allowed to live in peace and tranquillity. Also, the International Organization for Migration tell us that many of Lebanon's 177,000 migrants, including many female migrant domestic workers, have also been now forced to flee in search of safety but face limited shelter options. Lebanon UNIFIL says that within their area of operations, they still observe intense airstrikes and heavy clashes. Significant exchanges of fire are occurring in Sector West, particularly Marun ar Ras, Yaroun and Bint Jbeil and in Sector East, focusing on the Khiam, Kafer Kila and El Adeisse areas. UNIFIL peacekeepers continue to remain in position despite the dangerous environment, while the intensity of fighting hampers their movement and ability to undertake the full range of their mandated tasks. As Mr. Lacroix told you yesterday, the safety and security of our peacekeepers is a paramount priority and it is a shared responsibility for all parties. The Mission reiterates its call, both for an immediate de-escalation and for the parties to immediately return to a cessation of hostilities and the full implementation of Security Council Resolution 1701.

Israel is invading Lebanon and Iran is attacking Israel. Every one of these countries now at war, with tens of millions of people braced for what comes next. [Subscribe: https://bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe] A massive attack of ballistic missiles targeted cities across Israel, the revenge Iran promised after Israel killed the Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. It came as Israeli forces crossed the border into Lebanon telling people across the south to evacuate. So far there has been no fighting between Israeli forces and Hezbollah, but two waves of Iranian missiles have been launched into central and southern Israel. It's not known how many struck targets on the ground. Meanwhile Israeli airstrikes have struck across Lebanon all day, including in Beirut, and there has also been a suspected terror attack in Tel Aviv with at least six reported dead and nine injured. There have also been attacks in Gaza, Syria and the Red Sea.
