[45183] Nabih Berri calls on the international community to compel Israel to cease fighting

Nabih Berri's call for a cessation of fighting in Lebanon

On April 30, 2026, Arab media outlets published a series of reports dealing with the call of Lebanese Parliament Speaker, Nabih Berri, for international action against Israel. According to Al Jazeera and Palestine Urgent News 24, Berri demanded the acceleration of the establishment of an "international investigative committee" regarding what he termed "crimes of the Israeli occupation".

In another report, Berri emphasized that the Lebanese state, with all its authorities, and the international community, must act without delay to "compel Israel to stop its aggression immediately".

Berri's message received widespread echo in channels identified with the Axis of Resistance. Al Mayadeen emphasized that Berri views May 1st as an "open national call" to pressure Israel. This perception is shared by 'Rased Al-Adu' channel, a channel known for its distinct anti-Israel stance, which emphasized the need to document the "crimes" "with voice and image" that it claims IDF soldiers are committing.

Palestine Today channel and 'Beirut Time' channel reinforced the message, incorporating Berri's words as part of Lebanon's diplomatic effort to pressure the international level to stop Israeli military activity in Lebanon and other combat fronts.
