Germany: UN Security Council must play role in resolving crisis​


German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has called on Donald Trump to end his blockade of the Strait of Hormuz as oil prices surge and the world economic outlook dims.

Posting on X, Wadephul said the UN Security Council “must play a role” after it held a high-level debate on the escalating crisis in the critical waterway, which has caused thousands of cargo vessels and about 20,000 seafarers to be stranded.

The Security Council should “assume responsibility and pass a resolution”, he said, adding that Germany wants to “take on responsibility” and is running for a seat on the body.

The 15-member council consists of five permanent members with veto power – China, France, Russia, the US and UK – while the remaining 10 rotating, nonpermanent seats are allocated by region.
 
A UN-backed report said that more than 1.2 million people in Lebanon were expected to face acute hunger due to Israel's war on Lebanon.

The figure was announced in a joint statement by the UN's Food and Agriculture Organisation, the World Food Programme and Lebanon's agriculture ministry.

Some "1.24 million people – nearly one in four of the population analysed – are expected to face food insecurity" at crisis levels or worse between April and August 2026, they said.

They were referring to analysis from the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), a UN-backed group that monitors hunger and malnutrition.

This marks a "significant deterioration" from before the war erupted in March, "when an estimated 874,000 people, roughly 17 percent of the population, were experiencing acute food insecurity", the statement said.

"The deterioration is due to conflict, displacement and economic pressures," it added.
