UN calls for Israel-Lebanon peace push
United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged Israel and Lebanon to “seize the moment” of relative calm and move closer to a permanent ceasefire and long-term solution to the issues that sparked a war in 2006.
In a report to the UN Security Council on implementing a resolution that ended the 34-day war between Israel and Hezbollah fighters, Mr Ban said “greater overall progress should have been achieved” since its adoption.
