Egypt urges UN to intervene over Israel escalation in Lebanon
Egypt’s foreign ministry calls on “international powers and the United Nations Security Council to intervene immediately” to stop “the dangerous Israeli escalation in Lebanon.”
Cairo, a key mediator between Israel and Hamas, has repeatedly warned against Israeli regional escalation, which it says “threatens to drag the region into a comprehensive regional war.”
Egypt again expresses “solidarity” with Lebanon and affirms its “total rejection of any violations of Lebanon’s sovereignty and territory.”
Egypt says it “continues its efforts towards a ceasefire in Gaza” in an attempt to restore calm.
