Top EU diplomat says Israel has 'no excuses' to refuse a ceasefire with Hezbollah .

Josep Borrell calls for increased pressure on Israel to blunt extremists in the government.

Israeli officials said Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ’s security Cabinet was set to convene Tuesday to discuss a proposed ceasefire.

The G7 meeting of foreign ministers from the world's leading industrialized nations was dominated by the Mideast wars in Gaza and Lebanon .

The G7 has been at the forefront of providing military and economic support for Ukraine since Russia ’s full-scale invasion in February 2022 .

Russia attacked Ukraine last week with an experimental, hypersonic ballistic missile that escalated the nearly 33-month-old war.

G7 members are particularly concerned about how a Trump administration will change the U.S. approach.
