Geagea says south suffering due to reasons related to 'Iran's national security'
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea overnight said he expresses “the deepest sentiments of sympathy with the Lebanese southerners, especially the residents of border villages.”
“For the past 10 months, they have not known sleep or a moment of tranquility, that’s if they haven’t lost martyrs,” Geagea lamented during the annual dinner of the LF’s Upper Metn dept. in Maarab.
“What are the Lebanese national security necessities that have pushed us into this situation?” Geagea wondered, noting that “all the suffering that the people of the south are living today is linked to Iran’s national security.”
“The current war will end with disastrous consequences for Lebanon,” the LF leader added, saying “those responsible for the start of military operations in south Lebanon are to blame for all these losses.”
As for the solution, Geagea said “it is clear, easy and represented in the Lebanese Army’s deployment on the southern border and being in charge of defending it,” rejecting “the theories that promote that the Lebanese Army is impotent.”
