Saudi Arabia Demands Respect for Lebanon’s Sovereignty

Saudi Arabia voiced its “deep concern” on Monday regarding the escalating conflict in Lebanon, urging that the “sovereignty and territorial integrity” of the country be upheld.

In a statement from the foreign ministry, Saudi Arabia said, “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is closely monitoring the situation in the Republic of Lebanon with great concern.”

Following reports from Lebanon’s health ministry that over a hundred people were killed by Israeli airstrikes on Sunday, Riyadh emphasized the importance of respecting Lebanon’s sovereignty.

“The Kingdom calls on the international community to fulfill its responsibilities in maintaining regional peace and security, to protect the region and its people from the devastation of wars,” the statement continued.

Israel has been conducting lethal airstrikes in Lebanon for several days, culminating in the death of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Iran-backed Hezbollah, along with other senior members of the group on Friday.

As tensions escalate, there are increasing international calls for Israel to show restraint, with concerns mounting over the potential for a full-scale war in the Middle East as Israel prepares for a possible ground offensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon.
