Mikati asks Cabinet to convene over security situation and Syrian refugees

Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati has scheduled a caretaker Cabinet session for this Thursday.

A statement issued by Cabinet’s secretary-general said the session will tackle “the current developments at all levels,” in reference to the Israel-Gaza war and the latest military developments in south Lebanon.

Cabinet will also discuss a periodic report related to following up on the measures taken to confront the Syrian refugee crisis, the statement said.

Mikati also appeared to urge the boycotting Free Patriotic Movement ministers to attend the session.

“Mr. Prime Minister Najib Mikati calls on all ministers to take part in the scheduled session to fulfill the national duty that they are keen on, especially amid the critical circumstances that the country is going through,” the statement added.
