Hariri talks about the clearest evidence of Hezbollah's responsibility for his father's assassination
Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri called on Hezbollah to hand over those convicted of the assassination of his father, Rafik Hariri, who were sentenced to life imprisonment by the International Tribunal, noting that "history will not be merciful."
Hariri said in two tweets he posted on his official Twitter account: "After the conviction of Salim Ayyash for the crime of assassinating the martyr Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and his companions, the Appeals Chamber of the International Tribunal unanimously imposed a life sentence on two other members of Hezbollah, Hassan Merhi and Hussein Oneissi." According to him.
The former Lebanese Prime Minister continued, "The punishment is the most severe stipulated in the statute and the rules adopted in the court, but it is the clearest in terms of condemning Hezbollah as the party responsible for organizing and implementing the crime, and the party that cannot evade the responsibility of handing over the convicts and implementing the punishment against them. History will not be merciful." ".
It is noteworthy that Rafik Al-Jariri, a former prime minister of the Lebanese government, was assassinated on February 14, 2005 in the Lebanese capital, Beirut.
