CWN Editor's Note: The Council of Catholic Patriarchs and Bishops in Lebanon called on Israeli forces to withdraw from the nation.
The prelates “reaffirmed the Church’s commitment to Lebanon’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity, as well as the need to keep the country neutral in regional conflicts,” the SyriacPress news agency reported.
The appeal from the nation’s patriarchs and bishops comes amid the Lebanon war, in which Israeli advances have led to the displacement of Christians from villages in southern Lebanon.
