BEIRUT, LEBANON (7:45 P.M.) – The Israeli Defense Forces’ (IDF) Spokesperson Avichai Adrai went off on the Lebanese Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil, today, after the latter took several foreign diplomats on a tour of the alleged Hezbollah missile site in Beirut.
Adrai tweeted: “What do you plan to tell the ambassadors caretaker Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil? You have first to stop Hezbollah’s terrorism and remove its arms near Beirut’s airport. Have you inspected well whether the divine party still owns the sites we have revealed?”
Last week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the United Nations that Hezbollah has two hidden missile sites inside southern Beirut.
The Israeli premier claimed that Hezbollah was purposely hiding these missiles in residential neighborhoods in the Lebanese capital.
However, both Hezbollah and the Lebanese government called these allegations ‘lies’ and a pretext for a future Israeli attack.
