SPF refers to the ability to deflect burning UVB rays (SPF 15 deflects 93% of them; SPF 30 blocks 97%), but it says nothing about protection from UVA rays, which are just as harmful. The Food and Drug Administration has not yet approved a UVA rating system but has approved some ingredients that protect against UVA rays.

...adds, referring to the president of Egypt. Anger in Lebanon at the perceived inability or reluctance of the West and leading Arab states to push for a ceasefire is growing stronger by the day. As word spread of the new massacre in Qana, hundreds of rioters attacked the gleaming glass UN building in downtown Beirut, storming the entrance and tearing up the blue UN flag.
