Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati meets with the commander of the UN peacekeeping in southern Lebanon, Aroldo Lazaro, as Israel pushes for the Hezbollah terror group to dismantle a tent on the Israeli side of the border.
“[Lazaro] relayed to us the Israeli side’s demand to remove the tent,” Mikati is quoted saying by Lebanon’s National News Agency.
“Our response was that we want them to pull back from the north of Ghajar, which is considered a Lebanese territory,” he added, days after an anti-tank missile fired from Lebanon exploded near the northern border village.
