Maronite Patriarch Bechara Rai presided over a mass at Saydet Ilige Church in Mayfouq for the souls of the martyrs of the “Lebanese Resistance.”

He stressed that “Lebanon is not a battlefield but an oasis of freedom and human dignity,” adding that “the martyrs of the Lebanese Resistance have become a resounding cry that Lebanon lives only through freedom and sovereignty.”

He questioned, “Fifty years since the outbreak of the war, we still ask ourselves what it has taught us and what we have gained from its destruction.”
