BEIRUT (Dispatches) – The Zionist regime’s warplanes have breached the Lebanese airspace once again where they carried out mock raids at high altitudes, NNA correspondent reported on Sunday.
The breach took place over the areas of Nabatiyeh and Iqlim al-Tuffah in southern Lebanon.
The Lebanese army has called on the United Nations to act urgently to end the Zionist regime’s repeated violations of the Arab country’s sovereignty and airspace.
Lebanon has warned of dangerous consequences if Israeli warplanes continue to penetrate into the country’s airspace.
The occupying regime violates Lebanon’s airspace and territorial waters on an almost daily basis, claiming the flights and incursions serve surveillance purposes.
Lebanon’s government, Hezbollah resistance movement and the UNIFIL have repeatedly condemned the regime’s overflights, saying they are in clear violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and the country’s sovereignty.
Back on September 30 last year, fighters from Hezbollah intercepted and shot down an Israeli unmanned aerial vehicle while it was hovering over the southern part of Lebanon.
