Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri told his visitors that Israel’s airstrike on Beirut’s southern suburbs on Sunday was aimed at “obstructing the Iranian-U.S. negotiations.”
“The aggression that it carried out had no military value, seeing as the targeted site is a civilian site,” Berri added.
Israel “wants to drag Lebanon into a new war through establishing new rules of engagement that will not be permanent,” the Speaker went on to say.
