We will work to mobilize more Arab and international support to stop these attacks and push for an Israeli withdrawal,’ says Nawaf Salam - Anadolu Ajansı

Lebanon is ready to negotiate an end to Israeli strikes and seek Israeli withdrawal from five border points occupied since last year, President Joseph Aoun said Friday.

GENEVA: The United Nations called Tuesday for swift and impartial investigations into Israeli strikes in Lebanon, including a deadly attack on a Palestinian refugee camp last week.

An airstrike killed 13 people in the Palestinian refugee camp of Ein el-Hilweh. It was the deadliest Israeli attack reported since a ceasefire in the Israel-Hezbollah war a year ago.

An Israeli strike on a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon killed 13 people on Tuesday, according to the Lebanese health ministry.

Hospitals in Gaza said at least 21 Palestinians were killed in Israeli strikes Wednesday on both sides of the yellow line established in last month’s ceasefire. The boundary splits the enclave in two, leaving the border zone under Israeli military control while the area beyond it is meant to serve as a safe zone.

It was one of the deadliest Israeli strikes on Lebanon since a cease-fire with Hezbollah went into effect about a year ago.

The ceasefire is broadly holding in Gaza, with Israeli forces inside the strip having pulled back to the so-called "yellow line." Still, renewed Israeli strikes killed dozens of Palestinians last week in response to what Israel alleged was a ceasefire violation by a Hamas gunman.
