His Excellency Sayyid Badr Al Busaidi, the Foreign Minister of Oman, recently used social media to express his concerns and support for Lebanon and its citizens.

He highlighted the impact of illegal settlements and the imposition of an apartheid regime on the rights and lives of Palestinians under occupation. He called for immediate action to halt Israel’s military operations in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, and to work towards a peaceful resolution through collective international efforts.
