The Vatican daily the L’Osservatore Romano, has reported that the “Lebanese Maronite Catholic Church warned that the war in the Gaza Strip could spread to Lebanon as well.”

One of the dangerous aspects of the conflict in Gaza is that it could also spread to other places and countries, among which is Lebanon,” the bishops said after their monthly gathering, led by the Patriarch of Antioquia of the Maronites, Cardinal Nasrallah Pierre Sfeir.
