Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri strongly condemned the latest Israeli aggression on al-Musaylih, South Lebanon, describing it as "an aggression against Lebanon and all its people."
In a statement on Saturday, Berri said the blatant aggression, in its timing, location, and deliberate targeting of civilian and industrial infrastructure, "will not change our convictions and principles, nor those of our people, who, once again, are paying with their lives, homes, and livelihoods the price of their adherence to their land and their legitimate right to a dignified life."
According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in southern Lebanon, the Israeli occupation carried out airstrikes targeting six civilian facilities in a residential area of al-Musaylih, leading to their destruction.
Speaker Berri emphasized that the scene "speaks for itself" and clearly reflects the aggressive nature of the Israeli entity. "Let us unite from there, from al-Musaylih, for the sake of Lebanon, in confronting this ongoing aggression against our sovereignty and national dignity," he added.
One martyred, others injured in raids
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern Lebanon reported early on Saturday morning that one individual was martyred and five 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.
The Israeli occupation continues to violate the ceasefire declaration through persistent shelling and targeted aggression against various Lebanese regions; its attack on building equipment comes as part of its efforts to hinder any reconstruction efforts in South Lebanon.
