Hezbollah lebanon

Nawaf Salam's comments came as tensions continued to boil along Lebanon's eastern border, where Israel accuses Hezbollah of ignoring calls for disarmament and carrying out ceasefire violations.

“Iran’s role is extremely negative, and its policies are among the chief sources of instability in Lebanon and the region,” Raggi wrote on social media.

Sources in the Intelligence Directorate asserted that Hezbollah succeeded in sending its agents into positions where they can influence public policy and threaten the government.

Lebanese Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji added that Hezbollah's current concern is to "buy time and preserve itself internally in order to regain its power."

"When you see a hole in the ground next to the fence, you instinctively think of Hezbollah tunnels. This kind of anxiety doesn’t fade easily," a Shlomi resident commented.

On Wednesday, both Israel and Lebanon sent civilian envoys to a military committee monitoring their ceasefire, marking an expansion in the scope of talks between the two nations.

UNIFIL spokeswoman Candice Ardell told BBC News that Hezbollah supporters had often blocked the organization's convoys, accusing them of spying for Israel.

"We have the right to respond, and we will determine the timing," Qassem claimed. "The assassination of Tabatabai was a blatant act of aggression."

An IAF combat pilot from the targeted-killings team reveals the intel break, rapid approvals, and two-floor precision strike that killed Hezbollah chief of staff Haytham Ali Tabatabai in Beirut.

"At the very moment when the country needs protection and stability, Hezbollah continues to drag Lebanon to the brink of confrontation," said Lebanese MP Fouad Makhzoumi.

Israel is accelerating targeted strikes against Hezbollah positions, leading to Lebanon filing an urgent complaint to the UN Security Council, in a moment of increasing friction.
