UN official appeals for Lebanon’s ports and airport to be spared as Israel presses its offensive

Associated Press

BEIRUT (AP) — A top United Nations official says that he is concerned that Lebanon’s ports and airport might be taken out of service, with serious implications for getting food supplies into the county. That’s as Israel continues its offensive against the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. Carl Skau is deputy executive director of the U.N. World Food Program. He has appealed for diplomatic efforts to find a political solution to the war and for supply lines to remain open. Skau says that “We need the ports and we need the supply routes to continue to be able to operate.”
