Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati denounces intense Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets in east and south Lebanon as a “destructive plan.”

“The continuing Israeli aggression on Lebanon is a war of extermination in every sense of the word and a destructive plan that aims to destroy Lebanese villages and towns,” Mikati tells a cabinet meeting.

He urges “the United Nations and the General Assembly and influential countries… to deter the [Israeli] aggression.”
