Egypt, Iraq, Jordan: Israel ‘Pushing Region Toward All-Out War’

The foreign ministers of Egypt, Iraq and Jordan condemned Israel’s “aggression” against Lebanon Wednesday, warning that it is “pushing the region toward all-out war.”

The ministers said that stopping the “dangerous escalation under way in the region... begins by halting Israel’s aggression in Gaza,” in a joint statement issued after a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York.
