Spain condemns Israeli attacks, calls for ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon

Spain’s Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares has voiced alarm over the latest Israeli bombardments in Gaza and Lebanon, saying he is “deeply concerned” by the escalating violence.

“We condemn the violation of the ceasefire and the unbearable deaths of hundreds of civilians in Gaza,” Albares posted on social media.

He demanded respect for international law and civilian protection, calling for an immediate ceasefire in both Gaza and Lebanon.

Spain has been among the few European nations consistently criticising Israel’s assault, as diplomatic pressure mounts over the rising civilian death toll.
