The UN warns Lebanon could face same ‘spiral of doom’ as Gaza.

UN humanitarian officials have called for urgent action to stop the escalating conflict in Lebanon from spiralling into a similar scene of devastation as seen in Gaza.

Lebanon country director for the United Nations’ World Food Programme Matthew Hollingworth emphasized that it should be stopped.

Speaking to reporters in Geneva from Beirut, he said he had spent the first half of the year coordinating WFP’s operations in Gaza before taking the helm of its Lebanon office, and was deeply concerned by the similarities.
