🔴Former president Michel Aoun met today with Bashar al-Assad in Damascus for the first time since 2009 (archive photo).

Al-Assad stressed that Lebanon's stability is in the interest of Syria and of the region. "We are confident in the ability of the Lebanese to overcome all problems and challenges."

Aoun never met the Syrian President when it really mattered, during Aoun's presidency.

Today's visit in an attempt to ask Syria to pressure Hezbullah to discard Sulaiman Franjieh, is a worthless attempt with zero leverage.

Aoun miscalculated as badly as geagea.

The Lebanese Housing agency (a government institution) announced it will resume offering loans to buying homes.

The loan will be between 40-50 thousand in USD, depending on income.

Conditions?
- Don't own any property
- Never took a loan
- House at most 150m2

Hezbullah's first casualty against Israel was on 4 June 1982, on the first day of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon.

His name is: Munir Ali Farhat 🥀

Footage of Israeli equipment moving to the alleged training grounds for the two-week simulation of a multi-front war against Hezbullah and Palestinian factions.

APCs, artillery, and various other equipment.

⋯ Additionally, Iron Dome reinforcements were reported.

Media is reporting that the commander of the Lebanese army is in Haret Hreik to meet with officials from Hezbullah.

The Lebanese met representatives of the Israeli army at the UN HQ, as part of their monthly tripartite meetings to de-escalate.

The Lebanese delegation demanded the Israeli withdrawal from all occupied Lebanese lands, and halting all violations against Lebanon.

The Lebanese General Security denied Kuwaiti journalist Fajr Al-Saeed entry to Lebanon, due to an Israeli visit stamp on her passport.

Kuwait condemned her denial of entry, despite Kuwait's alleged anti-Israeli stance.

The Lebanese minister of foreign affairs met his Saudi counterpart, who thanked Lebanon for the fast response to free the Saudi citizen who was kidnapped in Lebanon.

Reportedly, the Lebanese army kidnapped relatives of the kidnappers, to pressure the release of the Saudi.

⋯ The video (including chant) that led to his arrest.

International Monetary Fund:

"Our director of the Middle East and Central Asia Region, Jihad Azour, is temporarily suspended from his work, and is currently on leave."

This is intended to allow his presidential bid to move on, without losing his job at the IMF.
