Mikati on targeting of Lebanese Army: We call on world countries, relevant international institutions to assume their responsibilities
Prime Minister Najib Mikati said in a statement, “Today the Israeli enemy’s direct targeting of an army post in the south and the fall of martyrs and wounded represents a direct bloody message rejecting all ongoing efforts and communications to reach a ceasefire, strengthen the army’s presence in the south, and implement International Resolution No. 1701.
He continued, This direct aggression is added to the series of repeated attacks on the army and Lebanese civilians, and is left at the disposal of the international community which is silent towards what is happening against Lebanon.”
The Israeli enemy's messages rejecting any solution continue, and just as it turned against the American-French call for a ceasefire last September, here it is again writing in Lebanese blood a shameless rejection of the solution that is being discussed, Mikati underlined.
He concluded, The government, which expressed its commitment to implementing International Resolution No. 1701 and strengthening the army's presence in the south, calls on the countries of the world and the relevant international institutions to assume their responsibilities in this regard.
