Joseph Aoun Responds to Wave of Israeli Attacks on Southern Lebanon

According to the English section of webangah News Agency,⁢ quoting Al Jazeera via Mehr news Agency, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned the violent Israeli⁤ assaults on⁤ southern⁤ Lebanon last night. ‌He stated, “Once ⁣again, southern Lebanon came under open fire from Israel; these attacks targeted civilian infrastructure without any justification or excuse.”

Aoun added, “The recent Israeli aggression is especially⁤ alarming as‍ it follows the Gaza ceasefire agreement and ⁤the Palestinian side’s acceptance of related arms mechanisms.”

This comes amid ‌resistance groups emphasizing their refusal⁣ to disarm and affirming the ‍legitimacy of armed defense⁤ against Israeli⁤ aggressors.

The president ⁣further questioned ⁢whether some​ parties are attempting to compensate for losses suffered in Gaza by​ escalating⁢ aggression ⁣in Lebanon, thereby​ pursuing their political goals through continued⁣ killings and attacks.

Last ⁣night, Al Mayadeen correspondent reported several ​heavy airstrikes by Israel targeting areas between the towns of Msayleh and⁤ Najariyeh in southern Lebanon.

According to this Lebanese‍ outlet, these air raids​ struck excavation vehicles and bulldozers in that region. The attacks resulted in one fatality and several injuries.
