Statement by the Government of Maldives Condemning Israel over recent attacks on Lebanon

The Government of Maldives condemns in the strongest terms, the Israeli aggression against Lebanon causing deaths, displacement and injury to thousands of innocent civilians. 

The continued escalation of Israeli aggression seriously threatens regional, and global peace and security, and risks the destabilization of the region.

The Government of Maldives calls on Israel to bring an immediate ceasefire, and an end to the bloodshed. 

The Government of Maldives calls on the international community to take decisive action against Israel and to ensure an immediate, comprehensive, and permanent ceasefire in both Lebanon and Gaza.

The Government and the people of Maldives stand in solidarity with the brotherly people of Lebanon during this difficult time and expresses its deepest condolences to the loved ones of those killed, and pray for swift recovery of those injured.
