Borrell: Nobody wins from regional conflict

European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell is located in Beirut, where he met with Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati.

At a press conference, he has said no one wins in a regional conflict, writes Al Jazeera.

Here are some of the points of discussion by Borrell's press conference:

We see a escalation in the exchange of fire between Lebanon and Israel, and war must be avoided.

Nobody wins in the regional conflict and I informed Israel of this and stressed the necessity of work through diplomacy to end the conflict.

We must act to reach a permanent truce in Gaza and free the hostages.

According to the World Food Programme, 100 percent of Gaza's Belt population suffers from a food crisis.

Gaza cannot be isolated from the West Coast and is part of the territory occupied by Israel since 1967.
