The Lebanese government has called for an emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council in response to the recent Israeli strike in Beirut. Accusing Israel of actions 'akin to genocide' on Lebanese soil, the caretaker cabinet of Lebanon condemned the attack on a populated residential area as a violation of humanitarian, legal, and moral principles.
Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati described the Israeli strike as a disgraceful and criminal act, likening it to genocide and a horrific massacre. The government of Lebanon has urged the international community to take action against Israeli military aggression, emphasizing the need to protect civilian populations from such attacks.
