Caretaker Minister of Information, Ziad Makary, stressed that the pagers’ blast was a “blatant attack on the Lebanese sovereignty, that targeted civilians, not only Hezbollah members.”

“What we fear is not Hezbollah, but Israel’s criminality, whether in Gaza or Lebanon,” Makary told Al-Jazeera.

He added that the Council of Ministers has accused Israel of the massacre that killed at least 9 and injured more than 3000. “Lebanon is preparing a complaint to submit to the UN Security Council, and the ambassadors of certain states concerned with this never-ending conflict between Lebanon and the Israeli enemy will be summoned,” he revealed.

“The enemy does not care about anybody, not even about the constant and public US pressures,” he added. “The US diplomacy must intensify its pressures on Israel before it does on Hezbollah and Lebanon,” he said.
