Hashem: UNIFIL's presence is more than necessary at this stage

South Lebanon, Lebanon ·

Lawmaker Qassem Hashem, of the Development and Liberation bloc, said the force is needed because Lebanon faces an existential threat. He said the force should remain to witness implementation of Resolution 1701, which he accused Israel of trying to evade or undermine while it stays in large parts of the south.

The UN peacekeeping force UNIFIL has been deployed in southern Lebanon since 1978, and UN Security Council Resolution 1701, adopted in 2006, ended the war between Israel and Hezbollah.
