The Israeli Foreign Ministry responded to a UN tribunal investigation into the 2005 assassination of former Lebanese PM Rafic Baha El Deen Al Hariri in which one member of Hezbollah was found guilty while three of the accused were acquitted.
"The tribunal's ruling was clear makes it clear to all: the Hezbollah terrorist group was involved in the murder and proceeded to interfere with the investigation."
"Hezbollah has taken over the country's future in the name of foreign interests. The nations of the world must act against this terrorist organization in order to help Lebanon break free of this threat. The organization's armament, its efforts to establish an arsenal of precision missiles, and its everyday actions endanger the entire region," read the statement.
