Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on Thursday asked his Pakistani counterpart, Shehbaz Sharif, to affirm that the ceasefire should include Lebanon, according to the German news agency (dpa).
In a phone call with Sharif, Salam “requested confirmation that the ceasefire must cover Lebanon, to prevent a repeat of the Israeli attacks witnessed yesterday,” a statement said.
Salam also praised the “efforts undertaken by the Pakistani prime minister that led to the ceasefire.”
For his part, Pakistan’s prime minister condemned the “recent Israeli attacks on Lebanon,” stressing that his country is working to help secure peace and stability there.
