Lebanon Segregates Hezbollah Arms from Israel Exit
Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has affirmed that the issue of Hezbollah’s weapons will follow an independent path from Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon. This move aims to separate the matter from the conditions the party uses to justify its continued arms. It comes in preparation for a new round of negotiations led by the United States, focusing on security arrangements and the implementation of the framework agreement signed last June. The agreement mainly involves setting timelines for withdrawal, expanding the Lebanese Army’s authority, and disarming the militias. The Lebanese government is working to establish a separate operational timetable for the weapons issue, starting with enhancing the deployment of the army in southern regions, with regular reports from military leadership to monitor progress. At the same time, preparations are underway for negotiations centered on the operational phases of the Israeli withdrawal. This approach aims to reduce Hezbollah’s ability to link the continuation of its weapons to the presence of Israeli forces or the outcomes of military operations, even though Israeli strikes continue in the south despite the agreement. Lebanon is also seeking to confirm that the future of Hezbollah’s weapons will be addressed through government institutions and the military plan, in a effort to strengthen national sovereignty.
