Lebanon submitted a new complaint to the UN Security Council regarding Israel’s attacks on its territory between November 2 and 11, 2024, as the escalation between Hezbollah and Israel has intensified since October 8 2023, in the context of a visit to Lebanon by American envoy Amos Hochstein on Tuesday for negotiations.
The complaint is part of periodic complaints submitted regularly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the Permanent Mission of Lebanon to the United Nations in New York to document the effects of Israeli aggression and its repercussions on Lebanon, and remind the international community of the need to put an end to it, reports our correspondent Hoda Chédid.
The recent complaint details attacks carried out by Israel since the last complaint submitted by Lebanon in early November. It refers to the kidnapping of the Lebanese Imad Amhaz in Batroun, to Israel’s land incursion, to the destruction of entire villages and residential neighborhoods such as Yaroun, Aïtaroun, Maroun el-Ras, Meis el-Jabal, in plus continued targeting of the Lebanese army, civilian installations and civilians such as in Tyre, Barja (caza du Chouf), Almat (caza de Jbeil) and Aïn Yacoub (Akkar), causing dozens of victims.
The complaint also lists attacks on vehicles, ambulance centers and personnel in Adloun (Saida district), Deir Qanoun, Ras al-Ain and Ain Baal (Tyr district), which resulted in the deaths of 11 rescuers, as well as as attacks on historic heritage buildings in Baalbeck and Nabatiyé.
In its complaint, Lebanon once again called on the Security Council to condemn the Israeli aggression, to take firm measures to put an end to it, to oblige Israel to immediately and unconditionally withdraw from the occupied Lebanese territory and to implement implements Security Council Resolution 1701, to which Lebanon fully adheres, in order to ensure the security and stability of the region.
Lebanon warned that Israeli aggression would have serious political and security consequences and harm efforts to establish stability along the Blue Line. And this unless the Security Council imposes a ceasefire, as provided for in its resolutions.
