Lebanon Files Complaint to UN Security Council Over Israeli Violations of Ceasefire, Resolution 1701

Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants submitted, through Lebanon’s permanent mission to the UN, a complaint to the Security Council over Israel’s violations of UNSC Resolution 1701 and the ceasefire agreement.

The complaint stressed Lebanon’s rejection of the “systematic Israeli attacks and violations” as well as Israel’s removal of the withdrawal line’s signs.

Lebanon urged the UN Security Council for a firm and clear position on Israel’s repetitive breaches, and for obliging it to respect its undertakings.

Lebanon also called the UNSC to reinforce support for the Lebanese army and the UNIFIL “to guarantee the protection of the Lebanese sovereignty and the safety of the Lebanese citizens.”
