NNA - President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, condemned the Israeli attack on Beirut's southern suburbs this evening.

He said, "The United States and France, as guarantors of the cessation of hostilities agreement, must assume their responsibilities and compel Israel to immediately cease its attacks."

"Israel's continued undermining of stability will exacerbate tensions and expose the region to real dangers that threaten its security and stability," cautioned Aoun.

"The ongoing Israeli attacks on Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity are unacceptable under any pretext," the President strongly underlined.
