India welcomes Israel-Lebanon ceasefire, says it will bring peace and stability in the region

India has welcomed the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. The Ministry of External Affairs stated that we have always emphasized on ending the tension, exercising restraint, and adopting dialogue and diplomatic diplomacy. We feel that this development will bring peace and stability to the region.

The report added that the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon-based Hezbollah had started on Wednesday morning. The Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement that we welcome the declared ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. We have always called for a reduction of tensions, exercising restraint, and returning to the path of dialogue and diplomacy. These developments are expected to lead to peace and stability for the wider region.

Early last month, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar had expressed concern over the continuing conflict in West Asia. Along with this, he said that conflict anywhere in a globalized world actually creates problems everywhere. To be honest, today, whether it is the conflict in Ukraine or in the Middle East (West Asia). The whole world is affected by it. Media reports say that long-displaced residents of South Lebanon have begun returning to their homes amid celebrations a few hours after the ceasefire.
