Foreign Secretary David Lammy has called for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah as he warned Brits to leave Lebanon amid rising tensions in the Middle East.
It comes after at least 37 people were killed as hand-held devices, including pagers and walkie-talkies, exploded across Lebanon."Tonight I'm calling for an immediate ceasefire from both sides," Mr Lammy told Reuters."We are all very, very clear that we want to see a negotiated political settlement so that Israelis can return to their homes in northern Israel and indeed Lebanese to return to their homes.
"A dramatic 'sonic boom' was heard over the city of Beirut today, after Israeli jets were spotted flying low over the Lebanese capital.The loud blast coincided with a Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah's speech on Thursday, in which the leader warned that "the resistance in Lebanon will not stop" until the war in Gaza ends.
