U.S. Tut-tuts: Says Syria Bombing Lebanon 'Absolutely Unacceptable'
2013-03-19
[An Nahar] U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland condemned on Monday the Syrian bombing of Lebanese border regions, stating that "this step violates the country's sovereignty and is absolutely unacceptable".

"Syrian warplanes Monday bombed northern Lebanon for the first time," Nuland confirmed to reporters, denouncing the move as "a significant escalation" of the conflict.

She elaborated: "We can confirm... that regime jets and helicopters did fire rockets into northern Lebanon, impacting Wadi al-Khayl, near the border town of Arsal".

"This constitutes a significant escalation in the violations of Lebanese sovereignty that the Syrian regime has been guilty of. These kinds of violations of sovereignty are absolutely unacceptable".
