The BBC are reporting that the fighting in Lebanon is still ongoing and that a pro-government TV station has been shut down following the Lebanese crackdown on Hezbollah.
The UN Security Council have reportedly urged the warring parties to put a halt to the violence immediately, following warnings from the Lebanese government that it's unity was being put at risk if the ongoing political and civil unrest continues.
