Hizbullah on Thursday denounced a UN decision to form an international tribunal in former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri's assassination as a "violation" of Lebanese sovereignty.
"The resolution, as much as it constitutes a violation of the Lebanese state and an attack on its internal affairs, it is contrary to legal rules and the charters and principles of the United Nations and the objectives for which it was established to achieve," said a statement issued by the group.
