Prime Minister Nawaf Salam stressed Tuesday that “the attack on Beirut’s southern suburbs and the other Israeli attacks represent a violation of the cessation of hostilities arrangements,” adding that “it is necessary to activate the monitoring mechanism to put an end to these attacks.”

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun called Tuesday on the United States to help Lebanon achieve stability.

"It is in the interest of the United States for Lebanon to remain a stable and secure country, and therefore it must help Lebanon achieve this goal," Aoun said.

The U.S.-led ceasefire monitoring committee might convene on Thursday after it had suspended its meetings and work following a U.S. decision, informed sources told Al-Akhbar newspaper.

The latest Israeli airstrike on Dahieh prompted Lebanese officials to intensify their contacts with foreign countries with the aim of pressing Israel to halt its attacks, a media report said.

Israel's latest airstrike on what it called a Hezbollah missile storage facility in Beirut's southern suburbs came during increasing pressure for the Lebanese militant group to disarm.

The disarmament of what has been the region's most powerful non-state armed group has come to look increasingly inevitable. Hezbollah is severely weakened after a war with Israel in which much of its top leadership was killed, and after losing a key ally with the fall of former Syrian President Bashar Assad, a conduit for Iran to send arms.

Israel’s military said it has struck more than 50 "terror targets" across Lebanon over the past month, despite a November ceasefire that ended a war between Israel and Hezbollah militants.

"Over the past month, the IDF (military) has struck more than 50 terror targets across Lebanon. These strikes were carried out following violations of the ceasefire and understandings between Israel and Lebanon, which posed a threat to the State of Israel and its citizens", the military said Monday in a statement.

Hezbollah's leader Sehikh Naim Qassem has called on the government to work harder to end Israel's attacks in the country a day after an Israeli airstrike hit a suburb of Beirut.

Qassem said in a televised speech Monday that Hezbollah implemented the ceasefire deal that ended the 14-month Israel-Hezbollah war in late November. But despite that, Israel is continuing with near-daily airstrikes.

An Israeli drone strike targeted an open area near a gas station in the southern town of Aitaroun on Monday, causing no casualties, the state-run National News Agency reported.

The head of the U.S.-led ceasefire monitoring committee, U.S. general Jasper Jeffers, will return Wednesday to Lebanon to meet with President Joseph Aoun, Speaker Nabih Berri and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, Asharq al-Awsat newspaper said.

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri told his visitors that Israel’s airstrike on Beirut’s southern suburbs on Sunday was aimed at “obstructing the Iranian-U.S. negotiations.”
