AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The leaders of the G20 nations appealed in a joint communique issued following a summit in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro.
They expressed “deep concern about the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip” as well as the escalation in Lebanon, and emphasized the urgent need to expand the flow of aid into the Palestinian enclave.
They also highlighted “the human suffering and negative impacts of the war” and called for a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
“We are united in support for a comprehensive ceasefire in Gaza in line with UN Security Council Resolution n. 2735 and in Lebanon that enables citizens to return safely to their homes on both sides of the Blue Line,” they said.
The Blue Line demarcates the de facto border between Israel, Lebanon, and the occupied Golan Heights.
