Mikati denounces 'destructive plan' amid intense Israeli strikes

Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati denounced a "destructive plan" amid intense Israeli strikes Monday on east and south Lebanon and as Israel's military said it attacked some 150 Hezbollah targets.

"The continuing Israeli aggression on Lebanon is a war of extermination in every sense of the word and a destructive plan that aims to destroy Lebanese villages and towns," Mikati told a cabinet meeting. He urged "the United Nations and the General Assembly and influential countries... to deter the (Israeli) aggression".
