With the two nations at the brink of War, the United Nations Security Council convenes in emergency session and both governments receive a direct appeal for an immediate cease fire with a warning from Ambassador Stevenson that hostilities must stop or full-fledged War develops. The resolution is passed: 9 to 0. Cyprus Looking down at the city of Cyprus. A bombed building burning with fire licking the upper side of the building. Fire department standing with a fire hose fighting a fire as smoke is filling up the area. Cameras pans over to damaged cars that got caught up in the fighting. Greek police blocking off a street. A bombed out home with just a burned shell. New York, NY An over all look at the United Nations Security Counsel. Ambassador Stevenson, "In this, the present flames are quenched and quenched quickly.
