TEHRAN, Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei on Sunday strongly condemned Israel's frequent military "aggressions" against Lebanon.
In a statement, he pointed in particular to Israel's drone strikes early Saturday on six heavy equipment yards in Al-Msaylih village in southern Lebanon, in which one person was killed and seven others injured.
In its Saturday airstrikes, Israel targeted the machinery and equipment used in debris removal and reconstruction operations in the residential areas damaged in its previous attacks, Baghaei said, adding that through its repeated attacks, Israel was constantly violating Lebanon's national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Israel's "frequent violations of the ceasefire agreement (with Hezbollah) and military aggressions against Lebanon's territorial integrity and sovereignty constitute flagrant violations of the United Nations Charter and international law," he said.
Baghaei called on the international community to take serious actions to rein in Israel's "lawbreaking and warmongering" against Lebanon and other countries in the West Asia region. ■
