Randeep Sarai, Canadaâs secretary of state for international development, condemned what he called Israelâs âunlawful invasionâ of Lebanon, saying Beirut should govern its own space and have sovereignty over its lands.
Sarai was visiting Lebanon to announce new humanitarian aid to the crisis-hit country, where the U.N. says some 360,000 people remain displaced due to Israel’s invasion.
âWe have been working actively, I think, through diplomatic channels to do whatever possible to stop that and to allow Lebanese communities that are from those areas to be able to move back,â Sarai said in an interview with The Associated Press late Tuesday.
