Italy Urges Israel to Stop Military Escalation in Lebanon

(MENAFN) Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has called on Israel to stop its military escalation in Lebanon, reaffirming support for a ceasefire arrangement in the region, according to reports.

Tajani made the remarks during a phone call with his Lebanese counterpart Youssef Raggi, where he also expressed Italy’s readiness to help strengthen Lebanon’s state institutions and regular armed forces.

Posting on the social media platform X, he stressed that all parties must respect ceasefire conditions in order to stabilize the situation.

"To defend the ceasefire, Hezbollah must absolutely cease any military action against Israel and accept the decisions of the legitimate government. We are convinced that Israel too must renounce military escalation. The path of diplomacy is the only way to achieve peace," Tajani said on US social media platform X.

According to Lebanese media reports, Israeli airstrikes on Thursday in eastern and southern Lebanon killed three people and injured eight others, despite the existence of a renewed ceasefire agreement.
