Security Council holds emergency session over Lebanon; region ‘on the brink of catastrophe’

It comes amid an uptick in cross-border fire between Hezbollah and Israeli forces – and two days of deadly wireless device explosions targeting members of the militant group. UN Spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric warned the region now stands “on the brink of a catastrophe.” UN News app users can go here for a recap of live coverage.
