Lebanon’s prime minister warns against dragging country into ‘adventures’

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on Saturday said he would not accept anyone dragging “the country into adventures that threaten its security and unity”.
In a statement released after “Israel” and the United States launched strikes on Iran, Salam noted the “serious developments” in the region and called on “all Lebanese to act with wisdom and patriotism, placing Lebanon and the Lebanese people’s interests above any other consideration”.
On Tuesday, the Reuters news agency reported that “Israel” had warned Lebanon that it would strike the country hard, targeting civilian infrastructure including the airport, in the event that Hezbollah gets involved in any U.S.-Iran war.
