Public sentiment shifts on weapon inventory
The article discusses the diminished effectiveness of Hezbollah's weaponry in defending Southern Lebanon, highlighting its recent defeats against Israeli forces. Despite the group's refusal to hand over the hills and positions it loses to the Lebanese army, Hezbollah prefers to escalate tensions and incite against the state. Sources indicate that the Shia community no longer believes in the group's ability to deter Israel, and its loss of initiative threatens its role as a resistance force.

However, Hezbollah insists on maintaining its armament, and there is ongoing division over the future of its military role.
