A senior US envoy said, Monday, that a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip may not halt cross-border clashes between the Israeli army and Lebanese group, Hezbollah, Anadolu Agency reports.
“Any ceasefire in Gaza will not necessarily automatically extend to Lebanon,” Amos Hochstein told a press conference in Beirut following his talks with Lebanese Parliament Speaker, Nabih Berri.
Hochstein said he is engaged and “collaborating with international partners to secure a peaceful solution in Lebanon.”
“Escalation will neither assist the Lebanese nor the Israelis in returning to their homes,” the White House envoy added.
