António Guterres, the secretary general, said in his opening remarks that “a powder keg risks engulfing the world.” Biden, who was addressing the General Assembly for the last time, warned that the world was facing an “inflection point.” “Our task, our test, is to make sure that the forces holding us together are stronger than those that are pulling us apart,” Biden said. “For the choices we make today will determine our future for decades to come.” Middle East: The newly elected president of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, told the assembly that he aimed to usher his country into “a new era” of domestic reform and constructive engagement with the world. He slammed Israel for what he called “crimes against humanity” and presented Iran’s support of a network of proxy militia groups as support for freedom fighters. Many speakers criticized Israel over the war in the Gaza Strip — which has killed more than 41,000 people, according to the local health authorities — as well as a steeply escalating conflict with the Iran-backed Hezbollah in Lebanon. Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was expected to arrive today and speak tomorrow. Ukraine: The Security Council convened a last-minute session on Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelensky appealed to the 15 members to continue supporting his country’s defense. “Russia can only be forced into peace,” Zelensky said. He also claimed to have information that Russia was planning to attack Ukraine’s three nuclear plants. He said he had put together a new victory plan based on the principles and values of the U.N. charter, but did not elaborate on its details other than to say that he was organizing a peace conference.

Six people were killed and 15 others injured, Lebanon’s health ministry said. Panicked by the intensity of two days of Israeli attacks, civilians streamed out of the country’s south. U.N. and Lebanese officials said on Tuesday that 27,000 displaced people had already been settled in temporary shelters. Israel said it killed Ibrahim Mohammed Qobeisi, who the military claimed was in charge of the group’s missile apparatus. Hezbollah confirmed his death, but did not provide any details about his role. The group referred to him by an honorific title reserved only for its senior members.

Will they support Harris? In a bitterly divided nation, relatively few Americans are genuinely torn between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Instead, some crucial undecided voters have ruled out Trump but are grappling with whether to support Harris, write in someone else or skip the election entirely. In recent elections, center-right voters who have recoiled at the direction of the Republican Party have played significant roles in Democratic victories, helping propel President Biden in 2020 and shaping key 2022 midterm elections.
