Israeli FM: Only implementation of UN Resolution 1701 will prevent war with Hezbollah

Israel’s foreign minister said on Wednesday that “all-out war” with Iran-backed Hezbollah could be prevented by the immediate implementation of a UN resolution that forbids armed groups in southern Lebanon from being near the frontier with Israel.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz said he sent a letter to dozens of his counterparts calling for the implementation of UN resolution 1701, which was passed at the end of the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.

The resolution stipulates that no armed factions should be present between Lebanon’s Litani River and the border. The river is several kilometers (miles) from the border.

“Israel is not interested in an all-out war, but the only way to prevent it is the immediate implementation of Resolution 1701,” Katz wrote in the letter.
