Israel’s invasion of Lebanon Update: Turkey strongly denounced Israel’s incursion into Lebanon, labeling it a violation of sovereignty and an unlawful occupation. The Turkish Foreign Ministry demanded an immediate halt to the attack and withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory to prevent further destabilization in the region.
Concerned that the offensive could lead to a new wave of migration and fuel extremism, Turkey urged the UN Security Council to intervene and uphold international law. The ministry emphasized that Israel’s actions not only threaten peace in the region but also have global repercussions.
As hundreds of Lebanese civilians fled their homes amid the escalating violence, the UN warned against a large-scale ground invasion by Israel. With casualties mounting on both sides, the international community fears the conflict could spiral into a broader regional war.
