Tehran has denounced the Israeli occupation’s repeated acts of aggression against Lebanon, describing them as a clear violation of the 2024 ceasefire deal, the UN Charter, and international law.
"The Zionist regime’s repeated violations of the ceasefire agreement, and its military aggression against the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Lebanon, constitute a blatant violation of the United Nations Charter and international law," Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said in a statement on Sunday.
Baghaei also criticized the inaction of the United States and France, the guarantors of the ceasefire, urging the international community to take serious and coordinated measures to curb the Israeli occupation's lawlessness and warmongering in Lebanon and across West Asia.
The remarks came following a series of Israeli airstrikes early on Saturday morning that left one person dead and seven others injured in southern Lebanon.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern Lebanon reported early Saturday morning that one individual was martyred and seven others sustained injuries as a result of the latest wave of Israeli attacks targeting the area between Musaylih and al-Najariya. The Israeli raids specifically targeted excavation equipment and bulldozers operating in the area. The bombardment led to disruption on the road linking the cities of Saida and Nabatieh.
On a related note, the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) condemned a second grenade attack by the Israeli occupation on its peacekeepers this month, calling it a serious violation of international agreements and a direct threat to UN personnel operating under a Security Council mandate.
In an official statement, UNIFIL reported that just before noon on Saturday, an Israeli drone dropped a grenade that exploded near a UN position in Kfar Kila, a town along the Lebanese-Palestinian border. One peacekeeper sustained light injuries and was provided with immediate medical assistance.
The Israeli ceasefire with Lebanon officially took effect on November 27, 2024, at 4:00 am (local time). However, the Israeli occupation continued its aggression against Lebanon and did not commit to the agreement. Till today, Israeli occupation forces continue to occupy seven strategic areas in southern Lebanon and continue to carry out attacks on southern and northern Lebanon.
