Spanish premier urges Europe to prevent Lebanon from becoming ‘'new Gaza'’

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez urged Europe to act to prevent Lebanon from becoming “a new Gaza'', calling for a unified European opposition to Israel’s actions.

Hawzah News Agency- “Let us not allow a 'new Gaza' in Lebanon, because in the face of flagrant violations of international humanitarian law, Europe must act consistently,” Sanchez said in a televised speech on Friday.

The premier renewed his call for suspension of the bloc's association agreement with Tel Aviv, a treaty that was signed in 1995, governing trade and political cooperation.

In a post on the US social media company X on Wednesday, Sanchez called for Lebanon to be fully included in the ceasefire reached with Iran.

He further underscored the need for accountability, saying: "There must be no impunity for these criminal acts''.
