Lebanon and its puppet government Syria must adhere to the full implementation of all provisions of Resolution 1701 which ended the 34-day war between Israel and Hezbollah in August 2006.
The U.N. Security Resolution calls for the disarming of Hezbollah and all other militias in Lebanon and greater progress toward a permanent ceasefire and long-term solution to the conflict between Lebanon and Israel.
Syria is supplying Lebanon’s Hizbullah militia with rockets in violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1701, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak charged on Tuesday. The resolution called for the disarming of all militias – an allusion to Hizbullah as well as to Palestinian militant groups – and the prevention of illegal arms sales and smuggling operations in Lebanon.
