Doha: The State of Qatar condemned the persistent Israeli assaults on Lebanon and the expansion of the scope of ground incursion of the occupation army into the country and the targeting of civilians.
It deemed these actions a dangerous escalation and an egregious violation of the sovereignty of the brotherly Republic of Lebanon and an open breach of international humanitarian rules-based order.
In a statement on Sunday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on the international community to uphold its responsibilities in obliging the Israeli occupation authorities to halt its repeated attacks on Lebanon, respect the international charters and laws, as well as enforce Security Council Resolution 1701 with its full provisions.
It underscored the State of Qatar's enduring position toward the Republic of Lebanon, its unity, sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasizing that Qatar fully backs all efforts that strengthen Lebanon's stability and prosperity.
