President of the Republic, General Michel Aoun, praised the victory achieved by the Lebanese Army in eliminating terrorists in the “Fajr Al-Jouroud” battle, on August 30, 2017. The President affirmed that this victory would not have been achieved without the blood of the martyrs who fell in order to protect the Lebanese people and its land, the spirit of moderation, and Lebanon’s message. “Security coordination between all apparatuses contributed to exposing and eliminating terrorist networks and cells, throughout the homeland” the President said.
The President also called on the Army and other apparatuses to be constantly alert to any terrorist activity or scheme aimed at destabilizing security and stability in Lebanon, and exploiting the difficult economic conditions and challenges facing the country, to create more confusion and chaos in order to achieve external goals and objectives.
Moreover, President Aoun commended the performance of the security forces at this delicate stage in the history of Lebanon, and the huge sacrifices made by their leaders, officers and personnel, to maintain stability and preserve the security of citizens.
Finally, President Aoun called on the Lebanese to rally around their military and security apparatuses, to stop those who seek to obstruct any attempt to rise and restore normal life to the Lebanese.
