Britain renews call for ceasefire after Israel strikes targets in Lebanon

Britain said on Monday that all parties must work toward de-escalation and a ceasefire after Israel launched airstrikes on targets in Lebanon, stressing the need for all sides of the conflict to step back from the brink.

A spokesperson for Prime Minister Keir Starmer stated that Britain's support for Israel's right to self-defense is "unwavering," but stability and security in the region can only be restored through a ceasefire.
