China has expressed concern over the recent escalation of conflict between Lebanon and Israel.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry called for all parties to ease tensions and work towards regional stability.
On Monday, the Israeli military reported hitting over 1,600 Hezbollah-linked targets, expanding its operations to the Bekaa Valley near Lebanon’s eastern border.
The Lebanese Ministry of Health reported 558 casualties from the strikes so far, including 50 children and 94 women. The Israeli military urged civilians to evacuate areas it identified as Hezbollah weapons storage sites.
Hezbollah began its rocket attacks a day after the deadly October 7 Hamas assault, saying it aimed to tie down Israeli forces to support Palestinian fighters in Gaza.
