President Joseph Aoun met Monday with the new chief of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), Major General Diodato Abagnara of Italy.

Aoun stressed to Abagnara “the importance of the continuation of UNIFIL’s work alongside the Lebanese Army in the South, in order to implement Resolution 1701 with all its stipulations,” the Presidency said.

He also emphasized “the need for the Israeli forces to withdraw from the five occupied hills, to enable the Lebanese Army to complete its deployment up to the internationally-recognized border.”
