The UN Security Council convenes to discuss the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question. The risk of regional spillover of the Israeli-Palestine conflict remains high, a top United Nations official to speak at the Security Council today, as delegates underscored that a full-blown conflict between Israel and Hizbullah would be catastrophic for Lebanon and the wider region. Khaled Khiari, United Nations Assistant Secretary-General for the Middle East and Asia and the Pacific to attend the session since 7 October, 304 Palestinians, including 79 children, have been killed in the occupied West Bank, where settler violence remains a grave concern. Meanwhile, four Israelis, including three members of the Israel Defense Forces, were killed in attacks by Palestinians in the West Bank, and another four Israelis were killed by Palestinians during an attack in West Jerusalem. Moreover, the continued daily fire across the Blue Line poses a great risk to regional stability, he said, pointing to several instances of strikes deeper into the territories of Lebanon and Israel which raise the risk of conflict. #israel #gaza #unitednations #unlive #palestine #israelpalestineconflict n18oc_world n18oc_crux CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
