France expresses extreme concern over situation in Lebanon, calls for restraint
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePARIS, France — France is extremely concerned by the gravity of the situation in Lebanon, the French Foreign Ministry says, adding that it called on parties to exercise restraint.
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant had earlier warned during a visit to Washington that Israel’s military was capable of taking Lebanon “back to the Stone Age” in any war with Hezbollah terrorists but insisted his government preferred a diplomatic solution on the Israel-Lebanon border.
