Receiving a delegation from the Lebanese Bar Association, the Speaker said that the current circumstances oblige the political forces to be united, after more than a year of power vacuum.

Berri commented that Lebanon is facing one of the most dangerous stages in its history in terms of the vacancy in the first presidency, the economic crisis, the Syrian displacement and the Israeli aggression.

In this regard, the head of the Lebanese Parliament condemned the ongoing attacks in the Gaza Strip, as well as the bombings targeting residential neighborhoods in towns and cities in the south of the country.

The leader of the Amal movement also denounced the premeditated Israeli aggressions against civilians and media professionals.

Incidentally, he lamented the death of citizen Hussein Ali Mansur (80 years old), killed yesterday in the village of Taybe due to Israeli artillery shelling of his house, and the one that occurred this morning in the town of Yater and the attack on the public school.

With war lurking behind the hostilities on its southern border, Lebanon is on track to end another year with a power vacuum without president since October 2022.
