According to Kirsikka Lehto-Asikainen, a large-scale war between the parties would be a very dangerous scenario.
Israel has no interests in the expansion of the conflict in the Middle East, said the theme ambassador for the Persian Gulf region Cherry Lehto-Asikainen in the morning on Tuesday.
According to Lehto-Asikainen, a large-scale confrontation between Israel and Hezbollah would be a very dangerous scenario.
– I believe that all parties want to avoid this.
Hezbollah is suspected of having struck the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Saturday. 12 people died in the rocket attack. The extremist organization itself has denied its involvement.
Israel has announced that it plans to respond strongly to the attack.
– We are still waiting to see what happens next, Lehto-Asikainen said.
Visiting leading expert of the Foreign Policy Institute who participated in aam’s discussion Olli Ruohomäki sees the situation between the parties as very tense.
Ruohomäki pointed out that Israel has already responded to Hezbollah on Monday by striking Lebanon several times. New attacks from the Israeli side may still be coming.
– Now we need ice in the hat once again.
Hezbollah, an extremist organization supported by the Iranian state and operating in Lebanon, opposes Israel’s attack on Gaza.
