Lebanese caretaker prime minister Najib Mikati said on Monday that countries should pressure Israel to stop attacking Lebanon following a United Nations Security Council decision calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

In a statement shared by his office, Mikati welcomed the decision, saying it was “a first step on the path to stopping the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.”
