Criminal U.S./Zionist Aggression Continues
Steadfast Resistance to Israeli Terrorism and Genocide
More than 1,000 Israeli airstrikes were reported on Monday September 23, targeting the Lebanese villages and towns of Qana, Ain Baal, al-Aqbiya, al-Sultaniyya, Sidiqin, Jabal al-Batm, Dabial, Markaba, Arabsalim, Aytit, Maaraka, and Nabatieh al-Fawqa, as well as the bridge between Jezzine and Marjayoun, in southernmost Lebanon.
On September 24 the Lebanese Health Ministry reported that Israeli aggression in Lebanon had to date killed 569 people, including 50 children and wounded 1,835 others.
Overnight from September 25 to September 26 Israel launched over 60 airstrikes on the Bekaa region, Al Mayadeen reported. One, which targeted a building housing Syrian workers and their families, killed 23, including children, in the town of Younine in northern Bekaa. Another airstrike in the town of Karak killed 11 people. Israeli airstrikes also targeted multiple towns in southern Lebanon, including Tebnine, Nabatieh, Kfar Tibnit, Bazouriye, al-Baysarieh, Zefta, Aitit, and Anqoun.
Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri stressed that "national unity and solidarity was a political moral duty at this stage of Lebanese history. Our people in the South, Bekaa, and Dahiya are a responsibility to all the Lebanese people, and their victory precedes any other consideration."
The Syrian Social Nationalist Party said that the ongoing escalations are a concerted war aimed at subjugating the entire Axis of Resistance and that such an outcome would never be recognized.
Iraqi President Abdul Latif Rashid called on the "international community to take a stand to stop the aggressive actions against Lebanon, which could lead to dangerous consequences."
Arab foreign ministers condemned the "escalating Israeli aggression against Lebanon, particularly since Monday morning."
The
Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine urged "the
continuation of popular movements and protests in the streets to
express anger against the ongoing war of destruction and genocide,
which has extended to beloved Lebanon and its brotherly people, aiming
to weaken the support front
for the Palestinian resistance." The statement praised the "valiant
Islamic Resistance and the spirits of the hundreds of martyrs who have
risen in their steadfastness and strong stance, and in the courageous
and painful response to the enemy, defending Lebanon, its people, and
its land, while
continuing to support the Palestinian people and their Resistance
against the ongoing genocide, amid the international community's and
Security Council's inability to stop it."

In
Palestine, September 26 marks 356 days of the U.S.-backed genocidal war
on Gaza. Israel continues its aerial and artillery strikes, continuing
to massacre and injure civilians. Media report on September 26 that
Israeli military bulldozers have caused extensive damage to roads,
sewage systems, and businesses in the occupied West Bank, in what
residents describe as an unprecedented level of devastation.
On September 25, Senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan stressed the
need for an end to Israel’s aggression against the Gaza Strip and
Lebanon in order for the resistance in Palestine and Lebanon to stop
their operations. “The resistance does not want to see the aggression against Gaza
or our people in Lebanon linger on for a long time, but the
occupation regime and its supporters must realize that no matter
how long it takes, the resistance will never surrender,” the Hamas
official underlined.
