Jordan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates warned Sunday against the dangerous escalation in southern Lebanon and the repercussions of igniting a new war in the region.
Jordan warns that the escalation in southern Lebanon could lead to the expansion of the war into a comprehensive regional war, the Ministry’s Spokesperson Sufyan Al-Qudah said in a statement aired by the official news agency (Petra).
Al-Qudah stressed the importance of supporting Lebanon, its security, stability, and the safety of its people and institutions, underscoring the need to abide by Security Council Resolution 1701 to prevent further escalation.
He emphasized that the continued Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip pushes towards further escalation and tension and threatens to expand the conflict regionally.
He affirmed the need to launch an effective international action that imposes an immediate cessation of the aggression and ends the resulting humanitarian catastrophe to protect the Palestinian people from further ma
ssacres and destruction and to protect regional and international security and stability.
