Lebanon rejects Blue Line set by UN

Tehran, IRNA – The commandership of the Lebanese Army has announced that it does not recognize the Blue Line set by the United Nations over the Shebaa farms in the south of Lebanon.

The announcement was made by General Mounir Shehadeh cited by Turkish Anadolu Agency (AA), Lebanese government's coordinator during his visit to the Blue Line area where the officials of United Nations Interim Force In Lebanon (UNIFIL) were invited.

The Lebanese Army commandership had organized such a visit to make the global society and ambassadors get informed of the situation of 13 border areas where there is a conflict between Lebanon and the occupied Palestine.

According to the UNIFIL, the Blue Line, stretching for 120km along Lebanon’s southern frontier, is a key to peace in the region. It is not a border, but a “line of withdrawal.” It was set by the United Nations in 2000 for the practical purpose of confirming the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the south of Lebanon.

Meanwhile, the forces of the Zionist regime of Israel have tried over and over to breach the line.
