Jordan Warns Of Potential Regional Conflict Due To Lebanon Tensions

Jordan has issued a stark warning about the escalating situation in southern Lebanon, highlighting the risk of a broader regional conflict.

On Sunday, Jordan’s Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Sufian Qudah emphasized the critical need to support Lebanon and adhere to UN Security Council Resolution 1701 to avoid further escalation. He called for coordinated efforts to de-escalate tensions and prevent the region from sliding into a larger conflict.

Qudah also condemned the ongoing “Israeli aggression” in Gaza and criticized the lack of progress toward a ceasefire. He warned that these factors increase the risk of a regional conflict. In addition, he urged the international community to take decisive action to end the Gaza conflict, address the humanitarian crisis, and protect Palestinian civilians while maintaining regional stability.

Early Sunday morning, Israeli and Hezbollah forces engaged in heavy exchanges of fire along the Israel-Lebanon border. This marked a significant escalation in their ongoing conflict. Hezbollah claimed it launched hundreds of missiles into Israel in retaliation for the recent killing of its commander, Fouad Shokor, in an Israeli airstrike on Beirut. In response, Israel reported carrying out numerous preemptive airstrikes targeting Hezbollah’s rocket launchers in southern Lebanon.

The intensification of these hostilities heightens the risk of a broader conflict involving regional and international actors, including the US and Iran. It also threatens to undermine ongoing ceasefire efforts in Gaza, where Israel has been locked in a protracted conflict with Hamas for over ten months.
