Former leader of Lebanon's Progressive Socialist Party, Walid Jumblatt, emphasized on Saturday the need for vigilance against Israeli efforts to ignite conflicts, extending his heartfelt condolences to the families of the martyrs who perished in the occupied Syrian Golan.
Jumblatt, a Druze leader, remarked that in light of Hezbollah's statement denying the involvement of the Islamic Resistance in the bombing that killed at least 11 Druze Syrians living in the occupied Syrian territories, everyone must be aware of the Israeli occupation's attempts to sow discord.
He called on the people in Lebanon and the occupied Golan Heights to be cautious of "any provocation or incitement within the enemy's destructive agenda."
The Lebanese political figure underlined that the occupation has long been working to incite strife, fragment the region, and target its components.
"We have previously thwarted the Israeli plans," he added, but they "re-emerged, and we are ready to confront them alongside the resistance and all freedom fighters."
'Israel' massacres civilians
Jumblatt highlighted that the past and present actions of the occupation were mired with massacres against civilians, emphasizing the need to "prevent the expansion of the war and call for an immediate cessation of aggression and a ceasefire."
He strongly condemned the targeting of civilians, whether in occupied Palestine, the occupied Golan Heights, or southern Lebanon.
The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah fully denied any involvement and responsibility for a deadly strike on the village of Majdal Shams in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, contrary to Israeli claims about the matter.
Hezbollah stressed that it had nothing to do with the incident, completely denying all the "false claims" in that regard.
This comes after a missile of unknown origin struck a playground in the occupied Syrian village of Majdal Shams, which is made up entirely of Druze Syrians. The strike killed at least 10 civilians, including children, and wounded at least a dozen others.
Reports indicate that the explosion may have been caused by an Iron Dome anti-air missile that deviated off its course and struck the area, as per Israeli media.
