00:06thousands to flee across the Bab al-Mandeep Strait to Djibouti.
00:10United Nations officials warn of the terrain conditions on the ground as the conflict between
00:15the Lebanese army and the Islamic resistance movement and Zahra'la continues.
00:19The U.N. Emergency Relief Coordinator allocated $9 million to support displaced families while
00:26warning that regional supply disruptions threaten to expand humanitarian needs.
00:30U.N. Special Envoy Hans Grunberg continues to find communication channels and hold the military escalation.
00:41The widening escalation is adding further pressure on already underfunded and overstretched humanitarian
00:47operations in the region where the needs remain high, while disruptions to trade energy and
00:53essential supplies risk compounding humanitarian needs both within and beyond the region.

01:11so we can reach all those who need it wherever they may be.
