Lebanese Sunni cleric: we will never recognise 'Israel'

Lebanon ·

Ahmad al-Qattan, head of the Sunni association Qulna wa al-Amal in Lebanon, strongly opposed moves to normalise Lebanese relations with Israel. He said he categorically rejects recognition while Israeli attacks and sabotage operations targeting the Lebanese people continue.

Lebanon has no diplomatic relations with Israel, and the two countries have formally been at war since 1948.
