HC Deb 14 February 2000 vol 344 c427W
Dr. Starkey

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will make representations to the Israeli Government concerning their recent bombing of power stations in Lebanon. [109963]

Mr. Hain

We have raised our concerns about the escalation of violence in Lebanon with the Israeli government. We urge all parties to exercise restraint and respect the April 1996 Understanding. These incidents confirm the urgent need for renewed efforts to achieve a comprehensive peace in the region, including implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 425.
