🔵 Statement 🔵

"Israel's military escalation in Lebanon has killed and displaced civilians, destroyed infrastructure, and eroded space for diplomacy. It must end.

Hizballah must end attacks on Israel and disarm.

All sides must respect the ceasefire and engage with negotiations in good faith."

British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper.

التصعيد العسكري الإسرائيلي في لبنان تسبب في قتل وتشريد مدنيين، وتدمير بنى تحتية، وتضييق المساحة المتاحة للدبلوماسية. هذا لا بد وأن ينتهي. كما يجب على حزب الله وقف الاعتداءات على إسرائيل ونزع أسلحته. وعلى جميع الأطراف احترام وقف إطلاق النار والانخراط في مفاوضات بحسن نية.

‎وزيرة الخارجية، إيفيت كوبر

🔵Statement🔵

"Deeply concerned by situation in southern Lebanon - the deaths of civilians, including first responders; the demolition of villages and civilian infrastructure; and risks to cultural heritage sites of world importance.

De-escalation is needed urgently. All parties must respect the ceasefire and uphold international humanitarian law.

The US-led talks are an historic opportunity to achieve a negotiated accord - the only way communities on both sides of the border can confidently return to live in peace. The UK will work with our partners to support a permanent end to this unwanted and unnecessary conflict."

British Ambassador to Lebanon Hamish Cowell

"نحن قلقون جداً إزاء الوضع في جنوب لبنان - مقتل
المدنيين، منهم المسعفين، وهدم القرى والبنى التحتية المدنية والمخاطر التي تهدد مواقع التراث الثقافي ذات الأهمية العالمية.

هناك حاجة ماسة إلى خفض التصعيد، كما على الأطراف جميعهم احترام وقف إطلاق النار والالتزام بالقانون الدولي الإنساني.

تُشكل المحادثات بقيادة الولايات المتحدة فرصة تاريخية للتوصل إلى اتفاق تفاوضي، وهو السبيل الوحيد الذي يُمكّن المجتمعات على جانبي الحدود من العودة بثقة إلى العيش بسلام. وستعمل المملكة المتحدة مع شركائها على دعم إنهاء هذا الصراع غير المرغوب فيه وغير الضروري بشكل دائم."

"Excellent meeting with Minister of Interior General Hajjar. I reiterated 🇬🇧 support to as they operate in an even more challenging environment. UK partnership with the ISF is strengthening real-time coordination through the Central Internal Security Council (CISC).

Through UK support, the CISC now brings together security agencies, including and government actors in one coordinated framework, enhancing preparedness through real time data, and driving a more unified response to security challenges."
