Lebanese government urges international pressure on Israel

Beirut, Oct 19 (Prensa Latina) The head of Lebanon's interim government, Najib Mikati, urged today to exert international pressure to stop Israel's provocations and aggressions on the Gaza Strip and the south of the nation.

Addressing a government session, the prime minister indicated that the Israeli attack on the border areas in the south and the fall of martyrs must stop in light of the continuation of the Gaza Strip.

Mikati emphasized that the massacre at the Baptist Hospital in Gaza constitutes a clear proof that Tel Aviv has no control over its aggression.

In this regard, the official questioned: “Where is international justice? When justice is denied, the whole world is in danger”.

In this regard, he specified that the government continues contacts and diplomatic messages are arriving that show understanding of the Lebanese concerns and the promise to try to stop the Israeli attacks.

On this issue, he informed of the communication with the UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, who is in Cairo, in preparation for a conference next Saturday.

In this context, he defended the need for a unified internal position, in the interest of the country, without attacking the people, the army, the security forces, public and private property, and diplomatic missions.
