Lebanon to file complaint to UN Security Council over Israeli attacks

Lebanon will file a complaint with the U.N. Security Council over Israel's attacks in the country, the prime minister said Thursday, as Israel continues to strike as part of a war against Hezbollah.

Lebanon's government said during a cabinet session that it considers Israel's "actions and statements, under whatever label they may come... to be extremely dangerous, threatening Lebanon's sovereignty, the integrity of its territory, and the rights of its people."

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam said: "I request that the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants immediately file a complaint with the Security Council in this regard."
