Geagea: Lebanon Is Arena for Iran's Struggle With the West

Samir Geagea, head of the Lebanese Forces party, has said that the firing of missiles from Lebanon into Israel shows that there are regional elements that are not interested in establishing a government in Lebanon, and that it is known exactly who controls the missiles.

He stated that the missiles had harmed Lebanon, not Israel, and asked, "Why must the Lebanese citizens pay the price for Iran's struggle with the West?"
