The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has strongly condemned the Israeli attacks across multiple areas in Lebanon and expressed deep concern over the ongoing escalation and its impact on regional security and stability.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) of the UAE called for coordinated international efforts to prevent further loss of life and highlighted the urgent need to ensure full protection for civilians in line with international law and treaties.
The Ministry reaffirmed the UAE’s full solidarity with the government of Lebanon and support during this critical juncture, emphasising its unwavering commitment to supporting Lebanon’s unity, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.
Furthermore, the Ministry affirmed the UAE’s unwavering position in rejecting violence and escalation, which contravene laws governing relations between countries and their sovereignty and that serve to further increase the risks of instability.
The Ministry emphasised the necessity of resolving disputes through diplomatic means rather than confrontation and escalation.
On the other hand, China has also responded to the Israeli attacks in Lebanon, stating that Lebanon’s sovereignty and security must not be violated.
According to foreign media, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry emphasised that the lives and property of Lebanese citizens must be protected. The spokesperson also called on all parties to exercise restraint and work to de-escalate tensions in the region. Meanwhile, Pakistan has condemned the Israeli aggression against Lebanon.
