Israel's conduct in Lebanon 'completely unacceptable': Belgian Foreign Minister

EU foreign ministers are meeting in Luxembourg on Tuesday to discuss Russia's war against Ukraine and the situation in the Middle East.

Ahead of the meeting, Belgian Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot criticized Israel's actions in Lebanon.

Lebanon was dragged into the regional war on March 2, when Hezbollah opened fire in support of Iran. That prompted an Israeli offensive that has killed more than 2,300 people, including 177 children, and forced more than 1.2 million to flee, Lebanese authorities say.

"Israel's conduct is completely unacceptable," Prevot said.

"Of course, we must firmly condemn Hezbollah's initial attacks, which, in seeking to show solidarity with Iran, dragged Lebanon into a war it did not want, as well as Israel's disproportionate and indiscriminate response."
