BEIRUT: Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati inspected the border area between Lebanon and Israel in an unannounced visit to the south on Tuesday, where he stressed “Lebanon’s respect for all international legitimacy resolutions and its commitment to implementing Resolution 1701.”
Tensions have flared between the two countries in recent weeks as a result of Israel’s assault on the Gaza Strip following an attack by Hamas that left over 1,400 Israelis dead on Oct. 7.
