On the 17th local time, UN Secretary General Spokesman Dijalik said at a regular press conference that violence has clearly intensified in southern Lebanon recently. There have been civilian casualties on the Lebanese side, and some families that have just returned to their homes have once again been forcibly displaced. The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon reports that the Israeli army launched several air strikes last weekend. The United Nations urges all parties to exercise maximum restraint, abide by the cease-fire arrangement, and push for a de-escalation of the situation through dialogue. Dijalik also stated that UN Secretary General Guterres has always emphasized that there is no military solution to the current conflict, and urged the US and Iran to resume negotiations as soon as possible and avoid military action due to the expiration of the 60-day negotiation window set in the Memorandum of Understanding previously reached between the US and Iran.
