Israel's recent military strikes on Lebanon have sparked significant global backlash, particularly as a ceasefire between the United States and Iran takes effect. US President Donald Trump characterized the situation as a separate issue, claiming Lebanon is not part of the truce, which has been contested by Pakistan's Ambassador to the US, Rizwan Saeed Sheikh. Sheikh asserted that Lebanon was explicitly included in the ceasefire agreement, a point that has raised tensions. European leaders, including Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and France's President Emmanuel Macron, criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for undermining peace efforts and emphasized the necessity of including Lebanon in any ceasefire for lasting regional stability. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned of potential retaliation against continued Israeli attacks, indicating a risk of further escalation. The United Nations condemned the strikes, with officials labeling them as horrific and a violation of international law. Middle Eastern nations, including Oman and Egypt, have also condemned the actions, highlighting the detrimental impact on humanitarian conditions in Lebanon.
