After Lebanon-based terrorist group Hezbollah tours Israeli-Lebanese border, Lebanese PM Saad al-Hariri beseeches UN for permanent ceasefire between his country and Israel; a powerful force in Lebanon, Hezbollah tour likely pushed Hariri to seek out calm front with Israel.

Lebanese Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri asked the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) on Friday to help Lebanon and Israel move towards a permanent ceasefire and end what he called Israel's "continuous violations" of Lebanese territory. Hariri's request comes after Lebanese-based terrorist group Hezbollah toured the Lebanese-Israeli border the previous day, in a show of force the likely prompted him to seek out a quiet front with Israel.

Israel and Lebanon's Shi'ite Hezbollah group fought a month-long war in 2006 that concluded with a cessation of hostilities but without a formal peace deal

"I urge the UN secretary general to support efforts to secure, as soon as possible, a state of permanent ceasefire. This is long overdue and my government is committed to move this agenda forward," Hariri said.

Hariri was speaking on a visit to south Lebanon a day after Hezbollah officials staged a media tour near the same area to view what they said were recent Israeli fortifications on the border and to state their preparedness in case of any new war.

The tour drew a response from IDF Spokesperson Unit representative, Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, who said in a Facebook post that Hezbollah's media tour was to "shake their sabres and pound their chests".

Under UN resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah, the Lebanese Army is responsible for security on its side of the border in a zone from which any other armed force, including Hezbollah, is banned.

UNIFIL: Hezbollah did not let us know in advance about border tour

The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon stated on Friday that it was not informed by Lebanon-based terrorist group Hezbollah of the tour that it gave of the Israel-Lebanon border.

The UN organization further stated that the power move by Hezbollah was in direct violation of UN Decision 1701, which states that the Lebanese Army is responsible for security on its side of the border in a zone from which any other armed force, including Hezbollah, is banned.


YOU SEE WHY ISRAEL MUST ONLY REPLY ON ISRAEL TO DEFEND HERSELF
