Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, Cuba’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, has strongly condemned the continuous, escalating, and intense Israeli attacks against Lebanon, which have resulted in the deaths of more than 1,800 Lebanese, with over 300 killed in the last 24 hours alone.
Through his official account on the social network X, the Cuban foreign minister denounced Israel’s attempt to derail the two-week ceasefire in order to undermine the negotiation process, which seeks a lasting settlement and an end to the aggression by the United States and Israel against Iran. He stated that Israel is violating international law and international humanitarian law with impunity and is constantly and deliberately threatening the stability and peace of the Middle East.
“We condemn the continued, escalating, and intense Israeli attacks against Lebanon, which have killed more than 1,800 Lebanese, including over 300 yesterday alone. Israel is attempting to derail the two-week ceasefire to undermine the negotiation process, which seeks a lasting settlement and an end to the US and Israeli aggression against Iran, blatantly violating International Law and International Humanitarian Law, and constantly and deliberately threatening the stability and peace of the Middle East.”
The escalation of violence in the region has intensified in recent weeks, with reports of Israeli attacks reaching residential areas in Beirut and other Lebanese towns.
The attacks come despite a recently announced two-week ceasefire agreement, which, according to the Israeli government, did not include Lebanon.
Cuba has consistently condemned Israeli aggression against the Lebanese and Palestinian civilian population and has repeatedly called for an immediate cessation of hostilities and respect for international law in the Middle East.
