BEIRUT: Lebanon’s Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil said on Monday that Israel was seeking to “justify another aggression” with false allegations of missile sites belonging to Iran-backed Hezbollah.

The ministry convened foreign ambassadors to respond to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s charges and will take them on a tour of at least one of the locations in Beirut.
