8 Israeli spy planes violate Lebanese airspace

Eight Israeli spy planes violated Lebanese airspace on Monday, Quds Press reported, violating UN Security Council resolution 1701.

In a statement reported by the National Lebanese Information Agency, the Lebanese army directorate said two scouting Israeli enemy drones violated Lebanese airspace separately on Monday, noting that they left after Lebanese planes circled them.

The agency also said that six Israeli fighter jets violated Lebanese airspace.

Israeli drones and jets violate Lebanese airspace on an almost daily basis despite the UNSC resolution which called for Israel to respect Lebanese sovereignty and stop its aerial flights over its northern neighbour, as well as ground and sea violations.
