In a statement, he said: "In light of all the challenges facing the country today, we see a glimmer of hope in the young men and women who insist on continuing their educational journey. This would not have been possible without the determination of the Ministry of Education and Minister Abbas Halabi, as well as the relevant directorates, especially the Directorate of Vocational and Technical Education and the Directorate of Secondary Education, which have taken all necessary measures to conduct these exams."
He added, "We congratulate the Ministry of Education, hoping to congratulate the students on their anticipated success, as we look forward to a new generation that is pioneering in its hopes and aspirations."
In response to a question about the risks faced by students in the south, he said: "All centers in the south are conducting exams normally, with absenteeism not exceeding one percent. This confirms the determination of the people of the south to steadfastly remain in their land. Today, we began the first round in Tripoli and will continue with tours of the examination centers in the south and other regions."
