Kremlin says Israeli strikes on Lebanon risk destabilizing the Middle East

MOSCOW — The Kremlin warned on Tuesday that Israeli strikes on Lebanon had the potential to destabilize the Middle East and said it was very concerned by the evolving situation.

Israel struck Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon and the Iran-backed group attacked military facilities in northern Israel on Tuesday, increasing fears of a full-blown conflict after Lebanon suffered its deadliest day in decades.
