Egypt Stresses Importance of Supporting Lebanon amid Escalating Tensions with Israel

Egypt Stresses Importance of Supporting Lebanon amid Escalating Tensions with Israel










Egypt stressed the importance of supporting Lebanon and “sparing it the scourge of war,” the country’s foreign ministry said on Sunday amid escalating tensions between Israel and the Iran-aligned Lebanese Hezbollah group.







The ministry made its statement during escalating tensions between Israel and the Lebanese group Hezbollah.


Cairo, a mediator in the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza, also warned of the dangers of opening a new war front with Lebanon


The Lebanese government has asked the United States to urge restraint from Israel, Lebanon's foreign minister Abdallah Bou Habib told Reuters on Sunday, as tensions build following an attack blamed on Hezbollah that killed 12 children and teenagers in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.


Retired Israeli Terrorists Major-General Itzhak Brik says potential escalation with Lebanon’s Hezbollah in the north of the country may lead to “a full-scale regional war and the destruction of our country”.


He told the Maariv newspaper those who seek revenge after the attack on the occupied Golan Heights may drag Israel further into the war with Hezbollah, with rockets targeting residences, power plants, gas platforms, army bases and factories.


“As a result, Israel will suffer very heavy losses and the country will be destroyed. We need an immediate end to the war in Gaza, which in no way leads to the end of Hamas,” said Brik.


“As long as the war in Gaza continues, it is only a matter of time before a full-scale regional war breaks out. We can respond to Hezbollah without setting the entire Middle East on fire.”



Israel terrorists forces advance in south Gaza, displacing more people



Terrprists Israel’s army sent tanks deeper into southern Gaza as health officials say attacks killed 66 Palestinians across the besieged enclave in the past 24 hours.


Armoured vehicles pushed into the three towns of al-Karara, az-Zanna, and Bani Suheila in eastern Khan Younis city. Medics said at least nine Palestinians were killed by Israeli military strikes in those areas.


Residents said fierce fighting could be heard. The new incursions caused thousands more Palestinians to flee their homes and head to overcrowded al-Mawasi to the west and central Deir el-Balah.

Meanwhile in Rafah, near the border with Egypt, Israeli forces advanced into the northern parts of the besieged city.


Tanks also shelled areas in central Gaza including the Bureij and Nuseirat refugee camps and Juhor ad-Dik village.



Al-Quds Brigades says it killed Israeli soldiers in Khan Younis



The armed wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group says it targeted an Israeli military crane and areas around it with heavy mortar fire in the east of the war-battered city.


“[A] helicopter landed in the area to evacuate the dead and wounded soldiers after the crane and its surroundings burned,” a statement on Telegram said, without giving precise figures.


The group said it also bombarded Israeli soldiers and vehicles that penetrated the Bani Suheila cemetery in eastern Khan Younis.



UNRWA warns of increased disease and skin infections in Gaza



The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) says families in Gaza have extremely limited access to clean water, hygiene products and cleaning supplies. This is leading to an increase in disease and skin infections.


In a post on X, UNRWA said it “continues to work to prevent the spread of infections but resources are limited. We need safe and unimpeded humanitarian access”.


Earlier this month, poliovirus was detected in samples of sewage water in the densely populated Gaza Strip, placing “thousands” of Palestinians at risk of contracting the highly infectious disease that can cause paralysis in children.
