The Security Council is holding an emergency meeting to consider the situation amid fears and concerns of a full-scale war in the Middle East region. On Tuesday, Israeli forces launched a “limited” ground offensive in Lebanon, following reports that Iran had also fired about 200 ballistic missiles into Israel. Earlier, Israel carried out massive bombings against Hezbollah extremists in Lebanon. All this is happening in the context of the Gaza war.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called for a full-scale war in the Middle East to be avoided at all costs. The UN Secretary General will also address the meeting.
