WARNING OF FULL-SCALE WAR
The European Union's foreign policy representative stated that the escalation between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon has nearly turned into a full-scale war. Josep Borrell told reporters, "This situation is extremely dangerous and concerning. I can say that we are in a state of almost full-scale war." Pointing to the increasing civilian casualties and the intensity of military attacks, he said, "If this is not a state of war, I don't know what to call it." Borrell noted that efforts to reduce tensions are ongoing, but Europe's worst fears regarding the spread of the conflict have come true. He emphasized that civilians are paying a heavy price and that all diplomatic efforts are necessary to prevent a full-scale war. "The time to do this is now, in New York. Everyone must put forth their full capacity to stop this path to war," he called upon the international community.

The G7 statement following a meeting held as a side event of the United Nations General Assembly included the following: "Actions and counter-responses carry the risk of escalating this dangerous cycle of violence and dragging the entire Middle East into a broader regional conflict with unimaginable consequences." The G7 countries emphasized that "no country will benefit from further escalation in the Middle East while calling for an end to the current destructive cycle."
NO EVACUATION STATEMENT FROM TURKEY
Just before the intense airstrikes by Israel began, the UK Foreign Secretary requested British citizens living in Lebanon to leave the country due to the expected outbreak of hot conflict between Israel and Lebanon. Some countries, including China and Spain, also called on their citizens living in Lebanon to leave the country. While the Turkish Foreign Ministry has not yet made such a call, a statement regarding Israel's recent attacks said, "Israel's attacks targeting Lebanon are a new phase in its efforts to plunge the entire region into chaos. Countries that provide unconditional support to Israel are aiding Netanyahu in shedding blood for his political interests. It is essential for institutions responsible for maintaining international peace and security, especially the United Nations Security Council, and the international community to take necessary measures without delay."
