What is resolution 1701? Israel slams UN chief for failing to act on Hezbollah • FRANCE 24 English

Israel's defence minister on Tuesday accused UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres of failing to prevent Hezbollah attacks on Israel after the UN chief said Lebanon was becoming a "nightmare" like Gaza following Israeli air strikes. "Mr Secretary General, the nightmare you speak of, is in fact a reality," Yoav Gallant said in a response to Guterres on X, adding "the reality is that Hezbollah has taken Lebanon hostage, and the UN is neither acknowledging their actions, nor fulfilling its fundamental obligation -- preventing Hezbollah attacks and demanding the implementation of Resolution 1701". #Resolution1701 #Lebanon #Israel 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X (Twitter): https://f24.my/Xen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
