Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil has lauded the Christian residents of the southern border towns for “clinging to the 10,452 square kilometers,” in the wake of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s claim that they had asked to be annexed to Israel.
Separately, Bassil expressed grief over the death of a Lebanese school principal and her mother in an Israeli airstrike in Nabatieh al-Fawqa.
Moreover, the FPM chief blasted the framework agreement that was reached in Washington between Lebanon and Israel.
“It is a scary scene when authorities are impotent in the face of an agreement that has exposed Lebanon and granted Israel the cover to attack and occupy, preventing us from even complaining and making us fear more for Lebanon,” Bassil added.
