The Interpol warrant is for Major General Jamil al-Hassan was circulated to the Lebanese security services and he would be arrested at any border crossing.

The Lebanese Hussein Nabil Al-Moussawi (25 years old) from the town of Bednayel was kidnapped yesterday while he was transporting a Syrian family to the border, where he was kidnapped by the Syrian opposition in the Al-Kafir area
Media is too big

🇱🇧l🇸🇾 The family of Hussein al-Mousawi has not yet heard back from him ever since he was kidnaped in Syria a few days ago by the new state.

He was a taxi driver, transporting a Syrian family. He is the breadwinner of his family.

There is zero coverage in Lebanese media and no action yet by the Lebanese government.

The red flag is nostalgic.

Low-key wish Hezbullah would alternate between 3 depending on the situation, black during mourning, red during the call for revenge, and yellow during victory

Some sort of symbology.

🇱🇧 The main goal of former MP Walid Jumblatt to nominate Joseph Aoun as a candidate has been achieved, in burning Geagea's presidential ticket.

Gaegae no longer has the courage to nominate himself, despite his party threatening, through MP Pierre Bou Assi, with the possibility of boycotting the session or disabling its quorum under the noscript of "conducting an evaluation of the entire process and preventing the resistance candidate from reaching it."

Aoun is not a pro-Resistance candidate and has betrayed his party FPM, he is also close to the USA, however he simply is not Gaegae who sees this is his golden opportunity after the collapse of the Syrian Regime and the weakening of Hezbullah.

🇱🇧l🇸🇾 Lebanese Druze leader Walid Joumblat arrived in Damascus to meet its new ruler Al-Jowlani.

📸 You can say, Joumblat had a thing for Syrian leaders and was a friend of everyone when that one was at the height of his power, then an enemy to him when he crumbled.

From Hafez, to Bachar, and now to Al-Shar'a(Jowlani)

🇺🇸 A U.S. F-18 was shot down in a friendly fire incident near Yemen, while trying to counter the drones launched by Ansarallah.

Israeli pilots are much more experienced in this role, and have proved to be better than many in the U.S. air force and Navy. There is an article about this describing the events or April-2024 that provides details.

📸 Joumblat was accompanied by some Lebanese Shia opposition, namely Mohammad Barakat who created a "new movement" against Hezbullah.

He's an outcast and so is his "new movement" who are trying to take advantage. of the current situation and the emotions after the war to gain political support away from Hezbullah. @Lebupdate

🇱🇧l🇮🇱 In a a first (if not mistaken), an Israeli political official, Minister of War Katz, entered into south Lebanon and threatened again.

Despite Hezbullah's complete silence and abstaining against all Israeli violations, including attacks on civilians and Lebanese state, Katz said:

"If Hezbullah does not withdraw beyond Litani and tries to violate the cease-fire - we will run off his head.

"We will ensure the removal of the threat and the return of security to allow the residents of the north to return safely to their homes."

Delusional delusional delusional, but mostly bloodlustful.

Previously political figures abstained from visiting because Lebanon is a state, and any visit is considered illegal else the area is to be considered under their occupation. @Lebupdate
