WASHINGTON, April 25 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres welcomed the extension of a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, calling on all sides to fully respect the agreement and halt further violence, his spokesman said Friday, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported.
Guterres "welcomes the announcement yesterday of a three-week extension of the cessation of hostilities, arrangements agreed to by the Lebanese government and Israel," Stephane Dujarric told the reporters.
His remarks came a day after US President Donald Trump announced that a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon had been extended by three weeks following ambassador-level talks at the White House.
Dujarric said Guterres "urges all to fully respect the cessation of hostilities and to cease further attacks."
