Alessandra Vellucci, Director of the United Nations Information Service (UNIS) in Geneva, said that the United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres had issued a statement that unequivocably condemned the massive strikes by Israel across Lebanon on 8 April and United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk had also issued a statement on the strikes.

Hundreds of thousands of people remained in urgent need of food assistance. Access to basic needs items was still very limited, and the rain was making it worse.
