European Union Representative Josep Borell said he and Lebanese Foreign Minister Bou Habib discussed ways to ensure there is an “immediate de-escalation” across the Blue Line — the border demarcation between Lebanon and Israel, Al Jazeera reports.
In a meeting on Wednesday, he also indicated they would ramp up efforts to find a political solution to lessen tensions.
“Lebanon, Israel and the region cannot afford another war. The EU would be affected too,” he posted on X.
