‘Extremely vulnerable’: Lebanon must be ‘strengthened’ as Israel attacks Hezbollah

Independent Women’s Forum Fellow Dr Qanta Ahmed has called for Lebanon to be “strengthened” as Israel continues its assault on Hezbollah. Dr Ahmed said Lebanon is “extremely vulnerable” with other nations “circling” the nation. “Israel has quite appropriately gone after Hezbollah and now is in a ground invasion,” Dr Ahmed told Sky News Australia. “You can see France taking this bizarre position of offering to negotiate with Iran on Lebanon's behalf, denying Lebanese sovereignty which was astonishing.”
