Kremlin Warns Of Third Party Involvement In Israel

POSTED ON October 9, 2023 •   World      BY Segun Adewole
The Kremlin issued a cautionary statement on Monday, highlighting the "high risk" of a third party entering the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. This concern follows the United States' decision to deploy warships closer to its ally, Israel, in response to the surprise attacks launched by the Palestinian militant group Hamas. U.S. President Joe Biden unveiled this show of support on Sunday, pledging additional aid to Israel in the wake of the escalating hostilities. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov voiced apprehension about the potential for external forces to become entangled in the conflict. He was quoted by the TASS news agency as saying, "The risk of third forces becoming involved in this conflict is high." Peskov emphasized the urgent need to initiate a negotiation process to de-escalate the situation and steer away from a military resolution. Russia has confirmed its engagement with both Israel and Hamas in attempts to mediate and defuse the crisis. Israel, already grappling with a volatile situation, is concerned about the possibility of further attacks from external entities. Lebanon's Iran-backed Shiite militant group, Hezbollah, fired upon Israeli positions on Sunday, heightening tensions in the region. Amidst these developments, several Western nations have expressed concerns that Iran may become involved in supporting Hamas in its offensive against Israel. Tehran, however, has firmly rejected these allegations. The situation remains fluid and unpredictable as international actors closely monitor the evolving dynamics of the Israel-Hamas conflict, with efforts to prevent the entrenchment of additional third-party involvement.
