Iran Press/ Middle East: "What happened was similar to a declaration of war which allows us to resort to our right to defending our sovereignty," Michel Aoun's office quoted him as saying on Twitter.
Lebanon's Hezbollah said that an intruding Israeli drone fell in the southern suburbs of Beirut, and a second drone exploded near the ground before dawn on Sunday.
Aoun met UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Jan Kubis on Monday to discuss “the latest developments,” the president’s office said on Twitter.
Separately, Prime Minister Saad Al-Hariri met Lebanon’s interior and defense ministers and with the army chief on Monday to discuss security issues, his office said, though it gave no further details.
Hariri, who has said the drones aimed to stir up regional tensions, is also due to meet the ambassadors of the UN Security Council’s five permanent members, his office said.
