🇱🇧 Hezbullah's MP Fadlallah, says the resistance isn't going anywhere and that it is legal in Lebanon through two things, setting aside also the popular support:

1- Taef deal
2- The Lebanese government statements when created, which stipulated a new 3orof aka an unwritten rule. The Lebanese constitution states that all 3orof is to be followed.

3orof is what makes the Lebanese president Christian and the PM sunnis and so on. The constitution doesn't.

🇱🇧 Al-Diyar Newspaper reports today that the resistance leaves it to the state to deal with the current Israeli violations through appropriate diplomatic means and it is giving it enough time to do so.

If the Lebanese state's reporting of the violations are not taken seriously, the resistance’s response will be legitimate and timely.

The resistance is giving the state all it needs to present its ability and showcase its will, while it retreats back to the shadows to adjust, learn, fix, plan, and build.

We should expect to see a different Hezbullah, who is less talkative and less open. Nothing tells you this more than the delay in both announcing the grand funeral and the speech by Sheikh Naim Qassem. Arrangements and planning.

🇱🇧 The Lebanese army to the front, and new tensions between its commander and the Minister of Defense

The Lebanese army has completed a detailed report on the Israeli violations that were recorded after the ceasefire went into effect at 4:00 am on Wednesday-Thursday.

According to the data, 12 violations were recorded until noon yesterday, Thursday, distributed between villages south and north of the Litani River, but the most distant and dangerous of what happened on the heights of the town of Al-Bissariyeh, Sidon District.

After the army completes its report and submits it to the Ministry of Defense, the latter will forward it to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to take the necessary action and explain what is necessary.

The worrying matter is that the Lebanese government might not raise it to the UN security council, but the the U.S headed ceasefire committee.

In any case, according to the requirements of the current agreement, the military committee tasked with monitoring the agreement, is composed of officers from the three Western countries + Israel and the United Nations, is responsible for dealing with and adjudicating violations.

While the paradox remains that this committee, which was supposed to be formed at the time of the ceasefire, has not yet, pending the arrival of the American and French officers to Beirut.

Meanwhile, the enemy is exploiting the vacuum to increase the frequency of violations of Lebanese territory.

Section #2: about the tensions between the LAF Commander and the MoD

The army command decided to appoint the commander of the South Litani Sector, Brigadier General Edgard Lowends (a Christian affiliated with the commander himself), as Lebanon’s representative on the committee.

It is noteworthy that the army commander, General Joseph Aoun, dealt with the appointment decision according to what his interests dictate and in line with his usual style in dealing with the Ministry of Defense, as he issued the decision to dismiss Lowends without consulting or participating in the binding need with the Minister of Defense, Maurice Slim.

📰 Here's the thing, Ali Makki and his likes from the opposition Shia in Lebanon are liars and distort the truth claiming they own the facts.

Ali Shoaib, didn't lie once in his coverage for Khiyam town and never claimed the IDF didn't operate inside the town.

Shoaib as very clear, so was Hezbullah in its many many statement, who stated clearly the IDF has advanced to the southern and eastern neighborhood of the town and 3 weeks into the second Khiyam battle the clashes reached the city center.

So yes, IDF forces are still in Khiyam in the places were they reported they are in, and both journalists and locals reached where the IDF didn't secure yet in both the center and east and north, etc.

Makki and his likes assume they have a moral and intellectual superiority. Ali and his likes are no-bodies, and their only worth is being opponents to the scared movement of Hezbullah in Lebanon.

It is beyond me and my understanding, why some Lebanese are so adamant and enthusiastic about showing their countrymen defeated against a foreign enemy power. It is quite unfortunate.

📰 Correction: It was a funeral of a lady who died naturally, and was being buried in her hometown.

The locals' cars were confiscated by the Israeli army. The locals already had approval by the Lebanese army and the UN to proceed with the burial.

🇮🇱l🇱🇧 Regarding what happened in Khiyam

Al-Manar: What happened in the city of Khiyam is an attack on citizens who were in the town cemetery burying a deceased person, and the enemy did not kidnap anyone.

The Israeli soldiers are stationed in the northeastern neighborhood and are trying to control the other neighborhoods with fire (control through fire means by attacks from distance)

🇱🇧 Al-Manar sounds the alerts. In a statement, Ali Shoaib says

The media rampage carried out by the Israeli enemy through its well-known mouthpieces by publishing maps, colors, and identifying towns it failed to enter or control thanks to the resistance [is unacceptable].

Israel is trying to nibble away at what it failed to do in the war and occupy it through media and attacks during the ceasefire!

The government that signed the agreement must now put an end to it because the matter is purely sovereign and affects every citizen before the enemy goes too far and the city of Tyre becomes red instead of Bint Jbeil and Nabatieh instead of Marjeyoun?!

In the terms of the agreement, both parties have the right to self-defense.

📸 Commander of the Israeli occupation forces in south Lebanon trespasses into Lebanon and visits the officers stationed there.

He repeated his threats about denying Hezbullah to regain a foothold again in these towns and the "aggressive implementation of the ceasefire"

✍️ Their use of the word aggressive about a ceasefire just showcases their criminal and monstrous nature.

Complete silence by Hezbullah so the Lebanese state and the army can showcase their seriousness

Two months of war on Khiyam and these neighborhoods didn't fall, only for the Israeli now to advance towards them peacefully and for us to hear about it from the media..not the Lebanese army.

What would stop them from taking all of Khiyam now? And advance to other towns? Why did they advance if they are leaving in less than 60 days?

Yes Hezbullah needs this ceasefire, but the situation is going to deteriorate if the Lebanese state doesn't act

🇱🇧l🇸🇾 While Lebanon is facing uncertainty, the whole western Aleppo countryside (Syria ) has collapsed and is now under control of the Syrian rebels and foreign terrorists.

The terrorists have reached the outskirts of Allepo city for the first time since 2016. The Syrian army is alone, with absence of Russian support and obvious inability of Hezbullah to be available.
