    UK welcomes Lebanese government’s call for cessation of violence

    LONDON (Reuters) - Britain welcomes the Lebanese government's call for a cessation of all violence after an attack on the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights blamed on Lebanon's Hezbollah, Britain's foreign minister said following a call with Lebanon's prime minister.

    "I spoke to (Lebanon's) Prime Minister @Najib_Mikati today to express my concern at escalating tension and welcomed the Government of Lebanon’s statement urging for cessation of all violence," David Lammy wrote on X on Monday.

    "We both agreed that widening of conflict in the region is in nobody’s interest."
