Egypt has issued a stern warning about the dangers of opening a new war front in Lebanon, referencing the recent events in the occupied Golan Heights. In a statement on Sunday, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry expressed deep concern that these developments could potentially ignite a broader regional conflict. Cairo highlighted the risks following the recent events in Majdal Shams, a village in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, cautioning that such actions could lead to a comprehensive regional war. The rising tensions have the potential to trigger an all-out war between Israel and Hezbollah. Meanwhile, Lebanon’s foreign minister, Abdallah Bou Habib, told Reuters that a significant attack by Israel would lead to a “regional war,” underscoring how close the region is to a wider conflict.
