"The Brazilian government condemns the series of coordinated and simultaneous explosions of hundreds of electronic communication devices that occurred today, the 17th, in Lebanon, resulting in the deaths of at least nine people, including a minor, as well as hundreds of injuries.
Such acts lead to a significant escalation of tensions in the region and exacerbate the risk of the conflict spreading. They also demonstrate that, regrettably, the multiple appeals by the international community for actors in the Middle East to exercise maximum restraint have been ineffective.
In this context, Brazil reiterates the imperative nature of full respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of countries and reaffirms its support for the strict implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
The Brazilian Embassy in Beirut has no record of Brazilian nationals among the victims and is committed to providing the necessary guidance to the Brazilian community amid the delicate security situation in Lebanon."
