The UN humanitarian coordinator in Lebanon has warned that Lebanon is facing "the deadliest period in a generation."

“The recent escalations in Lebanon are nothing short of catastrophic,” Imran Riza said, adding that many fear this is "just the beginning."

Over 700 people have been killed in Israel's bombing campaign in Lebanon which started on Monday, with at least 25 people killed since dawn today.
