Foreign Ministry Files Complaint to U.N. against Israel over Citizen’s Abduction
The Foreign Ministry filed a complaint on Sunday to the United Nations against Israel after its forces abducted a citizen on June 29.
Youssef Zahra was kidnapped by an Israeli infantry patrol in Marj al-Teiss.
The Lebanese army described the move as an encroachment on Lebanese sovereignty.
The Foreign Ministry meanwhile deemed the violation as a “provocation that serves to increase tensions along the border.”
It is a threat to civil peace and international security, said the complaint.
