#israel #iran #lebanon #gaza - ‘Nobody benefits from such a war’: Former Israeli official: Al Jazeera English

3 October 2024

At least seven people have been killed and eight wounded in Israeli air strikes targeting central Beirut overnight.

It hit a building in the area of Bachoura - just one kilometre from Lebanon's Parliament and the Prime Minister's office. Meanwhile, more Israeli strikes have targeted Dahiyeh, the southern suburb of Beirut where Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was killed last week.

Israel has hit the area several times in the past two weeks, saying it was targeting Hezbollah sites. And in Gaza, an overnight Israeli strike has killed at least one Palestinian and injured another in Deir el-Balah, in the central part of the strip.

An Israeli helicopter gunship struck a tent housing displaced people in a school compound. Alon Liel is a former director general at Israel's Foreign Ministry. He was also a former ambassador to South Africa.

He says Israel has been weakened from nearly a year of war in Gaza and the prospect of a protracted conflict in the region has its population worried.

Madrid, Feb 15 (EFE).- Spain will call its ambassador in Iran home for consultations if the government of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad does not provide an explanation or apologize for the arrest of a Spanish diplomat in Tehran, the European nation's foreign minister said Tuesday.
Trinidad Jimenez gave Iranian authorities 48 hours to provide "satisfactory" response and to explain why chief consular official Ignacio Perez-Cambra was held under arrest for four hours on Monday.

If no such response from Tehran is forthcoming, the minister warned in remarks to reporters before appearing before Parliament that she will call home the Spanish envoy.
Iran violated the Vienna Convention, which regulates diplomatic relations, by arresting a Spanish diplomat without telling him why, Jimenez said.

The foreign ministry summoned Iran's ambassador in Madrid, Morteza Saffari Natanzi, on Monday to explain the diplomat's detention.

Perez-Cambra was arrested by six men in plainclothes at the entrance to the Spanish Embassy in the Iranian capital on a day marked by violent repression of opposition demonstrations.
The Spanish diplomat was held for 4 1/2 hours at a police station and then released.
The Spanish foreign ministry announced Monday that it had suspended an upcoming visit to Madrid by a senior Iranian diplomat.
