The ministry further noted that despite repeated international calls for restraint, Israeli ground operations in southern Lebanon continue, and reiterated its call for respect for Lebanon’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Japan also urged all parties to immediately halt hostilities and comply with international law, including international humanitarian law, while emphasizing the importance of implementing relevant UN Security Council resolutions and exercising maximum restraint.
