xinhua news agency, united nations, october 2 (xinhua) china's permanent representative to the united nations, fu cong, said during the security council's emergency review of the situation in lebanon and israel on the 2nd that under the current situation, it is necessary for the united nations security council to take urgent action and unite to make clear and unambiguous demands, which must be carried out immediately in gaza. to achieve a ceasefire, we must push for the immediate cooling down of the situation in lebanon and israel and stop the cycle of violence. we must make every effort to prevent the spread of the war, and we must push the relevant parties back to the track of political and diplomatic settlement.

fu cong said that in the past two weeks, the situation in the middle east, especially in lebanon, has deteriorated sharply. china is deeply concerned about the current severe situation and the next development prospects, and is extremely worried. china calls for earnest respect for the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of all countries, reiterates its opposition to all violations of the basic norms of international relations, and condemns all violent attacks against civilians. china agrees with the position of the united nations that any israeli cross-border entry into lebanon violates lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity and violates the provisions of security council resolution 1701.

fu cong said that since october last year, violent conflicts have been recurring in the middle east. israel ignored the international community's calls for an immediate ceasefire and insisted on advancing military operations, causing the conflict to be delayed and expanded. currently, a full-scale war is about to break out. at this critical moment, any inflammatory remarks and provocative actions are extremely dangerous and can easily lead to misjudgments and chain reactions, causing the situation to escalate in turns and even get completely out of control. china urges all parties, especially israel, to exercise restraint and avoid taking any actions that may further escalate the situation.

fu cong said that the conflict has caused an unprecedented humanitarian disaster. china calls on all parties to the conflict to abide by the red lines of international humanitarian law and effectively protect the safety of civilians. china supports the united nations humanitarian system in taking emergency actions to ease the humanitarian situation in palestine and lebanon. china reiterates the importance of respecting the neutrality of the united nations interim force in lebanon and effectively ensuring the safety of united nations peacekeepers. united nations assets and personnel should not be targeted by armed attacks.

fu cong emphasized that the situation is already precarious and any negative delay is irresponsible. any rhetoric that condones greater military adventure will send the wrong signal and may have serious consequences. china hopes that major and influential countries will adopt a sincere and responsible attitude, effectively play a constructive role, and avoid further instability in the situation.
