Lebanon is set to file a complaint against Israel with the UN Security Council citing "repeated violations perpetrated by Israel, whose planes penetrate the country's aerial spaces."

Though an Israeli official confirmed to AFP that Israel was behind the attack, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made no mention of strike in Syria at a public appearance on Sunday.
The prime minister nonetheless spoke pointedly about a commitment to keeping Israel secure.
- "(My father) taught me that the greatest responsibility we have is to ensure Israel's security and guarantee its future," he said, dedicating a highway interchange named after his late father, Benzion Netanyahu, a historian who died a year ago.
