Israeli state terror in Lebanon

John Wilson made this Official Information request to Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet

The request was successful.

From: John Wilson

Dear Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet,

I am requesting information regarding the recent attacks attributed to the Israeli state in Lebanon, where at least eight people, including a child, were killed and thousands were wounded due to exploding pagers.

1) If a specific Israeli military or intelligence group is identified as responsible for the explosions in Lebanon, will the New Zealand government consider designating this group as a terrorist organisation? Please provide details on the criteria and processes involved in such a designation.

2) Should a specific group or individuals be identified as responsible for these acts, will the New Zealand government impose sanctions on the perpetrators? Please provide information on the potential sanctions measures and the implementation process.

Yours faithfully,

John Wilson
