Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam stated that Lebanon is facing a dangerous and unprecedented Israeli escalation. He added that Israel is not only targeting specific areas but is implementing a policy of widespread destruction and carrying out mass displacement. He further stated that Israel is targeting archaeological sites, some of which are UNESCO World Heritage sites, in violation of Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
He affirmed that the state will spare no effort in achieving a ceasefire, an Israeli withdrawal, and reconstruction. He emphasized that this war was imposed upon Lebanon and its cost is immense, and that Israel will not achieve security through destruction.
