The UN Secretary General called for a ban on the conversion of civilian devices into weapons

    The ban on turning civilian objects into weapons should become the rule for the countries of the world community.

    This was stated by UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres, commenting on the explosions of mobile devices in Lebanon, reports tass.ru.

    "I believe that the control of civilian objects and their non-conversion into weapons should become a rule that states need to implement," he said at a press conference on the eve of the high-level week of the 79th session of the UN General Assembly.
