EU foreign ministers to hold emergency meeting on Middle East

 

European Union foreign ministers will hold crisis talks via video conference Monday afternoon to discuss the situation in the Middle East, Paralel.Az reports citing Bloomberg.

The ministers will address the state of play following Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah on Friday in Beirut and Israeli air strikes across Lebanon since then, according to a statement from the office of the EU’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell.

President Joe Biden said Sunday that he would speak soon with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as fears of an all-out war were mounting.
