Lebanon says it will file Security Council complaint against Israel
Lebanon’s foreign minister has instructed his ministry to file a complaint with the United Nations Security Council over alleged Israeli violations of Lebanese sovereignty.
Gebran Bassil is quoted by Lebanese media of accusing Israel of violating the country’s sovereignty some 150 times each month.
The move comes amid an Israeli military operation to locate attack tunnels along the border dug by the Lebanese terror group Hezbollah.
The Israel Defense Forces has stressed it is only operating on the Israeli side of the border but has not ruled out destroying tunnels in Lebanese territory as well.
