President Michel Aoun told UNIFIL chief Major General Aroldo Lázaro Sáenz, Thursday in a meeting, that the Israeli violations are threatening Lebanon's stability and sovereignty.

Aoun underlined Lebanon's commitment to the U.N. resolution 1701, condemning the Israeli violations.

He mentioned the attacks on peacekeepers in southern Lebanon, describing them as "simple and minor." "They are being resolved in a quick manner," Aoun added.

He also stressed the importance of maintaining the cooperation between UNIFIL and the Lebanese Army in order to keep the calm and the stability in the region.
