Israeli planes violate Lebanon airspace

Two Israeli fighter jets have penetrated Lebanese airspace and flown over parts of the country in violation of a UN Security Council resolution.

The Israeli aircraft crossed into Lebanese airspace over the southern border town of Alma al-Shaab at 10:20 a.m. local time (0720 GMT) on Tuesday and conducted several unwarranted flights above southern Lebanon, according to a statement released by the Lebanese military.

The Israeli warplanes left Lebanese airspace at 12:15 p.m. local time (0915 GMT) while flying over the southern village of Rmeish.

Israel violates Lebanon's airspace on an almost daily basis, claiming the flights serve surveillance purposes.

Lebanon's government, the Hezbollah resistance movement and the UN Interim Force in Lebanon, known as UNIFIL, have repeatedly condemned the overflights, saying they are in clear violation of UN Resolution 1701 and the country's sovereignty.

UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which brokered a ceasefire in the war Israel launched against Lebanon in 2006, calls on Tel Aviv to respect Beirut's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

In 2009, Lebanon filed a complaint with the United Nations presenting over 7,000 documents pertaining to Israeli violation of Lebanese territory.
