  Members of the Security Council held informal consultations on 22 August to hear a briefing by Assistant Secretary-General for Political Affairs Danilo Türk on developments in the Middle East. The Assistant Secretary-General informed the Council about the international task force meeting in Paris and the Secretary-General’s appointment of a Personal Humanitarian Envoy, Catherine Bertini. He also expressed concern about the uneasy calm prevailing along the Blue Line between Israel and Lebanon and urged interested parties to make efforts to bring an end to Israeli overflights of Lebanon and Hizbullah anti-aircraft firings over Israel that could lead to escalation.<\/p><\/div>\n
