The Israeli aggression targeting UNIFIL forces along the Palestinian-Lebanese border is a crime condemned by Lebanon, Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati declared on Friday.
"We adhere to our right and land, and have repeatedly affirmed our commitment to Resolution 1701 at international forums," Mikati stated, adding that Lebanon formally submitted a request asking the United Nations Security Council to issue a ceasefire resolution in Lebanon.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in South Lebanon reported that the Israeli forces stormed the UNIFIL base in al-Labbouneh on Thursday, and vandalized the area. The forces reportedly destroyed UNIFIL contents and energy generators, and fired shots inside the base.
Moreover, our correspondent reported that UNIFIL soldiers in Labbouneh base hid in shelters during an Israeli assault.
