Salam Condemns Israeli Strike on Army Vehicle as "Crime Against Lebanon"

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has expressed deep mourning for Lebanese military personnel killed in an Israeli attack on an army vehicle, characterizing the strike as a grave offense against the nation.

In a statement, Salam extended his condolences to the families and comrades of the fallen soldiers: Brigadier General Wissam Sabra, Captain Elie Khoury, and Private Hussein Ghazal, as well as to the Lebanese Armed Forces at large.

The Prime Minister emphasized that Israel's targeting of these military personnel constitutes "a described crime against Lebanon and all Lebanese." He underscored that the assault transcends the loss of individual soldiers carrying out their patriotic responsibilities, but rather represents an assault on the Lebanese state, its institutions, and national sovereignty.

The Israeli strike, which resulted in the deaths of several servicemen performing their duties, has prompted strong condemnations from political and official circles across the country.
