Lebanon's Foreign Ministry condemns Israeli cyber attack, prepares complaint to UN Security Council

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants condemned in a statement "in the strongest terms the Israeli cyber attack that led to the explosion of a large number of pager devices in several Lebanese areas, resulting in an initial toll of 8 deaths, including children, and thousands of injuries, some of them in critical condition."

The statement also highlighted that this serious and deliberate Israeli escalation comes alongside threats from Israel to widen the conflict with Lebanon significantly, as well as increasingly harsh Israeli rhetoric calling for further bloodshed, destruction, and devastation.

The statement added that, after consulting with the Prime Minister's Office, preparations are underway for a complaint to the United Nations Security Council regarding the attack, once all relevant details are finalized.
