The United Nations “strongly condemns” Israel’s latest attacks in neighboring Lebanon, and mourns the loss of civilian lives, a spokesman said on Wednesday.
Farhan Haq, deputy spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, said, “The United Nations strongly condemns the attacks carried out by Israel across Lebanon, which resulted in significant civilian casualties.”
He added, “We continue to call on all parties to avail themselves of diplomatic channels, end hostilities” and use the new US-Iran ceasefire as an opportunity to prevent further loss of life.
