Ruthe, who will officially assume the position of NATO Secretary General from today, also said that this military alliance led by the United States is closely monitoring the current situation in Lebanon.

Stoltenberg was NATO Secretary General for a decade. His tenure was extended due to the Ukrainian war. Since September 23, the Zionist army has carried out extensive airstrikes in Lebanon against what it called “Hizbollah’s targets”.
According to the announcement of the Ministry of Health of Lebanon, as a result of the Zionists’ aggression against the country, which continues in the Gaza Strip, more than 1,000 people have been martyred and about 3,000 are also injured. Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Secretary General of Hezbollah, was also martyred in the brutal attacks of the Zionist regime on southern Lebanon.
