Havana, September 23 (RHC)-- The president of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, strongly condemned this Sunday the inaction of the United Nations in the face of the recent Israeli attacks in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon.

His criticism is based on the lack of response by the international community to the escalation of violence, which has left a tragic balance.  "What is the UN for?" Díaz-Canel asked through his X account, after Israeli attacks on buildings in southern Beirut claimed the lives of at least 50 people, according to preliminary figures.

The Cuban president questioned the passivity of the international community in the face of the crimes of Israel, whom he described as a "terrorist state, sponsored by the United States."  He added that "Silence is complicity," which favors the death of thousands of innocent people involved in the armed conflict.

Last Friday, the Israeli army carried out an airstrike against a residential building in Beirut, causing the death of two commanders of the Lebanese organization Hezbollah - Ibrahim Aqil and Ahmed Wahbi - along with other senior members of the group.

Previously, between September 17 and 18, Lebanon was hit by a series of attacks using electronic devices, such as pagers and walkie-talkies, intensifying tension in the region.
