Sharjah 24 – KUNA: The European Union Saturday said it is following closely the developments that ensued over the last days, including the artillery and air strikes by Israel in southern Lebanon.
"It is crucial for all parties to exercise utmost restraint and work towards a quick resolution of the current tensions" said the EU spokesperson for foreign affairs and security policy, Nabila Massrali, in a statement.

Further the EU condemned the firing of rockets from southern Lebanon towards northern Israel and the occupied Golan Heights.

The 27-member bloc also reiterated its full support to UNIFIL efforts and the importance of Lebanon's commitment to a policy of disassociation from all regional conflicts.

The relevant UN Security Council resolutions 1559 and 1701 must be fully respected, added the statement.
