The President of the Republic, General Michel Aoun, strongly condemned the crime perpetrated by Israeli forces, by shooting a group of youths who demonstrated at the southern borders in protest against the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip this afternoon, which led to the death of the young man, Mohammad Tahan, and the wounding of another.

President Aoun asked the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, Charbel Wehbe, to notify the United Nations about the Israeli attack and its consequences, in order to take necessary procedures.
