“The terrible Israeli massacre, now in Lebanon, evidences the impunity of Zionism today,” the head of State expressed.

Likewise, he commented that “the silence” of the allies of the Israeli Government “is another sign of complicity and cowardice.”

Our solidarity goes to the victims and the Lebanese people, and we express our absolute repudiation for this outrage, the president declared.

The Lebanese Foreign Ministry accused Israel of being the perpetrator of a massive attack on Tuesday, at approximately 15:30 Beirut time, when message-receiving devices in the possession of Hezbollah members were detonated.

Meanwhile, the nation’s Council of Ministers condemned the aggression and called on the United Nations to demand accountability for the attack.
