Aoun in contact with Lebanon's ambassador to US over Israeli attacks
President Joseph Aoun emphasized during a Cabinet session Thursday that he and PM Nawaf Salam are continously monitoring the situation in southern Lebanon, Information Minister Paul Morcos said after the meeting.
He added that the president is in contact with Lebanon's ambassador to Washington, Nada Hamadeh Moawad, urging her to work continuously with the U.S. administration to pressure Israel to adhere to the ceasefire.
Morcos also noted that Salam clarified that Lebanon "has not yet entered into negotiations and is still in the preparatory meetings phase in Washington, with the priority being a ceasefire."
