BEIRUT, Jul 31 (NNN-NNA) – Lebanese Prime Minister, Najib Mikati condemned the deadly attack in Beirut’s southern suburb, Dahieh today, warning of a deteriorating situation, if Israel continues its “reckless and murderous criminal madness.”
“We fear the situation will worsen, if the concerned countries and the international community do not rush to stop this dangerous chaos,” Mikati said, during a cabinet meeting held to discuss the latest developments, according to a statement released by the Lebanese Council of Ministers.
Mikati called on countries that have been witnessing Israel’s violent actions to urge it to cease fire, adhere to international resolutions and laws, and implement Security Council Resolution 1701, that calls for the full cessation of hostilities and the deployment of Lebanese forces to Southern Lebanon among other issues.
Mikati vowed to work to save Lebanon and protect its society from any danger, saying “my appeal to the Lebanese is for us all to stand together and be able to prove our unity and confirm our solidarity with our people and our rejection of any aggression that affects any region of Lebanon.”
“We will remain in constant contact with Lebanon’s friends and Arab brothers to prevent the escalation of the situation, which will have major repercussions,” he added.– NNN-NNA
