AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The Iranian Foreign Ministry has marked the 18th anniversary of Lebanon’s victory against the Israeli regime in 2006, hailing the 33-day war as a symbol of the “resistance and strength” of the Lebanese people and resistance.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, the ministry said the war, which led to the withdrawal of Israeli occupying troops from southern Lebanon, will always be remembered as a “significant victory” in the minds of regional nations.
It noted that the victory by the Islamic Resistance has ensured stability and security of Lebanon, and brought dignity and pride to the Lebanese people.
"Struggle and resistance against occupiers is the inalienable right of occupied nations and liberation groups based on the United Nations Charter, international norms, and regulations,” the statement said.
The Foreign Ministry further reiterated that the Islamic Republic has always stood by the people and government of Lebanon and will continue to do so.
