Khreis: Southern Lebanon sends clear message of resilience, commitment to national unity
MP Ali Khreis, member of the Development and Liberation bloc, toured several polling stations in the city of Tyre, including the Bassel Al-Assad Cultural Center designated for voters from the town of Shemaa.
In a statement, he noted that 'around 68% of towns in the South and Nabatieh governorates saw uncontested municipal victories, the highest rate in Lebanon, a strong indication that people are aligned with the cause, deeply rooted in their land, and committed to national unity.'
Khreis emphasized that 'citizens are casting their votes freely, which reflects the highest form of democracy.' He pointed out that 'despite attempts by the Israeli enemy to cause disruptions, residents remain steadfast and unshaken, responding to Speaker Nabih Berri's call to vote en masse as a public referendum in favor of coexistence and state sovereignty.'
Khreis concluded by affirming: 'Our choice is a capable state, and we must maintain pressure on Israel to implement UN Resolution 1701. The popular turnout is a message to the world: the people of the South remain firm in their commitment to the path of Imam Moussa al-Sadr.'
