Ongoing Syrian war likely to overshadow UN meeting
This year's UN General Assembly is expected to be overshadowed by the organisation's failure to produce a solution to the war in Syria.
This picture shows the destructions after government forces' bombings in the town of Al Habit on the southern edges of the rebel-held Idlib province on September 9, 2018.
The war in Syria has been ongoing for seven years with hundreds of thousands of people killed and no visible foresight on when it will end.
The United Nations has long been criticised for failing to bring an end to the war, apart from achieving the occasional temporary ceasefire.
In the face of the continuing tragedy, this year's UN General Assembly is likely to be overshadowed by the UN's failure to produce a solution.
