Cairo - Saba: The Arab Republic of Egypt condemned the dangerous Zionist escalation in Lebanon and the extensive military operations that led to the death and injury of hundreds of Lebanese, including women and children.
In a statement on Monday, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry expressed its sincere solidarity with Lebanon and its brotherly people, and its sincere condolences to the families of the victims and its wishes for a speedy recovery for the injured. It affirmed its total rejection of any violations of Lebanon's sovereignty and territory.
Egypt has previously warned of the dangers of continued Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, and the danger of its expansion, which threatens to slide the region into a full-scale regional war, according to the Middle East News Agency.
The statement stated that while Egypt continues its efforts to cease fire in Gaza and contain the dangers resulting from the war there, it calls in this context on international powers and the United Nations Security Council to intervene immediately to stop the Zionist escalation in the region, which threatens the fate of its peoples and the prospect of peace.
Egypt also called for a peaceful settlement of the crisis, an immediate de-escalation, the start of the implementation of Security Council resolution 1701 without selectivity, and the opportunity for diplomatic solutions, especially since military escalation will only exacerbate the crisis.
