The foreign secretary has also repeated his call for British nationals not to travel to the country amid heightened tensions between Hezbollah and Israel.
“My message to British nationals in Lebanon is clear: If you are in Lebanon, leave,” he said in video message on X.
“You should leave while commercial flights are running,” he stressed.
He also said his government will do all it could to prevent the outbreak of a full-scale conflict but added that “the risk is rising”.
