Risk of war? Canada urges citizens to leave Lebanon

Release time:Jun 26, 2024 13:12 PM

On the 25th, the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on its citizens to leave Lebanon as much as possible.

Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly issued a statement on the same day saying that due to the ongoing violent conflict between Hezbollah and Israel, the security situation in Lebanon has become increasingly unstable and unpredictable, and may further deteriorate without warning.

Joly said for Canadians still in Lebanon, now is the time to leave while commercial flights are still available. Canada will not be providing assisted departure or evacuation services for these people at this time.

Canadians have been advised to avoid traveling to Lebanon since a new round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict broke out in October last year.

German foreign minister warns: Risk of all-out war in Middle East 'increasing day by day'

German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerböck said on the 24th that Germany is "extremely worried" about the escalation of conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the risk of a full-scale war in the Middle East is "increasing day by day."

At the Israeli annual security conference in the central Israeli city of Herzliya on the 24th, Belberk said that Germany was "extremely concerned" about the conflict on the Lebanese-Israeli border. She will go to Lebanon the next day to mediate the situation between Israel and Lebanon.

"We will work with other partners to find ways to reduce the harm," Baerburk said. "The risk of an accidental escalation and all-out war is growing."

In order to show support for the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement, Hezbollah in Lebanon has been firing rockets and artillery shells from southern Lebanon into Israel since the outbreak of the current round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in October last year. The Israeli army has responded with air strikes and artillery shells. According to statistics from AFP, the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel has caused at least 478 deaths in Lebanon, most of whom are Hezbollah members.

The Israeli army approved a combat plan against Hezbollah last week. Hezbollah responded strongly to Israel's military threats. Hezbollah leader Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah warned that if a full-scale conflict breaks out between the Israeli army and Hezbollah, there will be no safe place for Israel.

Belbourne also mentioned the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip in Palestine, saying that pictures of the tragic plight of civilians in the Gaza Strip have aroused public doubts, sadness and anger, and that Israeli military operations have left at least 17,000 children orphaned or separated from their parents.

Baerberk said that as a "friend" of Israel, she had to "advise frankly" that the rising public anger would not only fail to meet Israel's "security needs", but would also "undermine its security" and encourage Hamas to "escalate the situation". She did not want Israel to "lose itself" in the conflict with Hamas.

Since the outbreak of this round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip have caused heavy casualties on the Palestinian side. According to the latest data released by the Gaza Strip Health Department on the 24th, the Israeli military operations have caused more than 37,600 Palestinian deaths and 86,000 injuries.

Bellbourne said that Israel has been accused of human rights violations on many occasions, including its abuse of Palestinian detainees and the violent expulsion of Palestinian civilians by extremist Jewish settlers in the West Bank.

The Israeli army claimed that it was investigating allegations of abuse of Palestinian detainees. Several human rights organizations believe that relevant Israeli departments often fail to conduct comprehensive investigations into violent incidents involving Palestinians, and even if they find that Israeli soldiers are at fault, they are only punished symbolically.

At the meeting that day, Baerburk and US Ambassador to Israel Jacob Lew jointly called on the Palestinian National Authority to implement "reforms" so as to participate in the post-war governance of the Gaza Strip.

Lu reiterated the United States' support for the "two-state solution" and pointed out that "civil order and civil administration" need to be established in the post-war Gaza Strip, and the Palestinian National Authority "must be part of it."

Lu said that the "two-state solution" will bring "security and dignity" to the people of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and create a "safer future."

Bell Burke also supports the "two-state solution", saying that it "promotes peaceful and prosperous coexistence between Palestine and Israel" and is the "best way to lasting security". She called on the Palestinian National Authority to implement "reforms" and cited Israel's illegal expansion of Jewish settlements in the West Bank as an example, emphasizing that any action to "destroy and impact the established structure of the Palestinian National Authority" is "dangerous and counterproductive".

When asked by reporters about post-war arrangements in the Gaza Strip on the 23rd, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel will maintain "military control" over the Gaza Strip in the "foreseeable future"; if it can obtain support from local Palestinians and relevant parties in the Middle East, it will still seek to establish "civilian administration" in the Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu also said that the "fierce fighting phase" between the Israeli army and Hamas in the Gaza Strip is "very close to the end"; after the "fierce fighting phase" in the Gaza Strip ends, the Israeli army may transfer troops northward to the Israel-Lebanon border area.

Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Mustafa announced in late April that a package of reform measures would be implemented in multiple areas including anti-corruption and justice to strengthen the governing capacity of the Palestinian National Authority. According to Reuters, the Palestinian reform measures are aimed at responding to the call of relevant international parties to participate in the governance of the post-war Gaza Strip.
