President Biden Admin Must Facilitate Israel, Hezbollah Deescalation

Win Without War Executive Director Sara Haghdoosti released the following statement responding to reports of an Israeli strike in Beirut in response to the tragic events at Majdal Shams:

“The latest round of strikes between the Israeli military and Hezbollah puts the region at the edge of a major war. Win Without War is alarmed by the escalation over the last several days. We call on the Biden administration to redouble diplomatic efforts to calm tensions and prevent further violence.

“A ceasefire in Gaza remains the most crucial step in ending this devastating cycle of violence. We urge the Biden administration to use all the leverage at its disposal to secure a deal that returns hostages held in Gaza, ends the killing and horrific humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and averts a regional war.”
