Britain, Italy, Switzerland, and Indonesia to verify Hezbollah disarmament
Reports indicate that Lebanon and Israel have agreed to nominate four countries—Britain, Italy, Switzerland, and Indonesia—as potential contributors to a mechanism for verifying Hezbollah's disarmament. These countries are likely to assist in defining the scope of the mechanism, oversee its implementation, or participate with monitoring and inspection forces. This step is part of American mediation efforts to implement the June agreement, which stipulates Israel's gradual withdrawal from Lebanon in exchange for Hezbollah's disarmament. Ongoing discussions are focusing on identifying the candidate countries and the role of foreign forces, with confirmation that the final decision will be in the hands of the United States.
