Lebanon to warn the Syrians about the border violations

Share:

Lebanese Prime Minister Najib MiKati requested that Lebanese Ambassador to Syria Michel Khoury to submit an urgent letter to the Syrian Foreign Ministry informing it of the “continuous shelling that is targeting Lebanese border towns from nearby Syrian military outposts, as well as warning the Syrian authorities on the negative repercussions that these violations might lead to specially since security measures have been taken by the Lebanese army to protect Lebanese citizens, ” National News Agency reported on Monday

The latest violation of Lebanese territory by Syrian regime forces took place on Sunday morning when shells fired from Syria landed on northern Lebanese border towns in the Akkar district.

The shelling appeared to have targeted Our Lady of the Castle Maronite monastery in the town of Menjez near the Lebanese Syrian border , NNA reported.

Syrian troops have been violating the Lebanese territories on regular basis . Last Saturday they entered Lebanon and kidnapped two Lebanese nationals in the Al-Dawra area in the Hermel town of Masharee al-Qaa. Later that day , Syrian officials apologized for the violation and pledged to punish those responsible for it, but the violations continued.

The current Lebanese government is dominated by Hezbollah and was reportedly made in Syria.

Hezbollah has been supporting the crackdown by the Syrian regime of president Bashar al Assad ever since the 18 month uprising by the Syrian people began. According to activists over 26,000 people have been killed so far, mostly civilians.

    Nothing like a speedy ‘response’ …. seems Bashar is no longer in control of his ‘army’ anyway.

      This is where you are wrong 5th, Basher is very much in control. If it was the case that he wasn’t, he will have been forced to leave power. You need to read the news more. Its seems the opposition are the one who are losing or lost control. I know it the wish of lot of people to see Basher Leave, however at the same time there is also a lot that want him to stay. In fact more than 70% of the country does including the Alawites, The Shiites, the Christens, most sunni’s, and the druze.

        So, then we can conclude Assad doesn’t like Lebanese Maronites.
        Why else would he tell his army to shell them?

  3. A team of MI6 officers working with GCHQ’s monitoring station in Cyprus is trying to trace the whereabouts of British fighters, including one  who said he was a London hospital doctor.
    The man was one of a group of jihadists who kidnapped British journalist John Cantlie and Dutchman Jeroen Oerlemans.
    The pair were held for  a week before being rescued and said many of the fighters appeared to be British Pakistanis with London accents.
    Cantlie said the man who treated him for wounds claimed to be an NHS doctor on sabbatical from A&E at  a South London hospital.
    He added: ‘The doctor was one of the few guys who was half decent to us. But this was a group of kids on “jihad holidays” and he was an integral part.’ mail online england

      Weird is telling what they are thinking of doing, as if searching for approval, instead of just sending the ‘urgent letter’.
