❗️ Alerts in Tel Aviv at 3 am after ballistic missile fire from Yemen, for the second time in a row tonight

🇱🇧 This morning, President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, met with the Acting Director General of General Security, Major General Elias Al-Bissari

Al-Bissari was candidate for presidency, filling currently as the head of General Security, a position reserved to Shia

📸 Today the president also met in the tripate meeting Nabih Berri, the parliament speaker, the Prime Minister designate Nawaf Salam

🇱🇧 So far, both Nawaf and Aoun extended a hand to Amal and Hezbullah and in several remarks today hoped to comfort them

Both Amal and Hezbullahw were also accepting, as they mentioned they will wait and see action and won't judge or react.

Aoun said that:

- If a component [sect or party] is broken, Lebanon as a whole will be broken.

- The Lebanese state and people are responsible for bearing the burden of the conflict with Israel

- We must send positive messages abroad that Lebanon is capable of governing itself, implementing reconstruction transparently, and building a state that we all call for

- "Being a son of the South, I refused to accept congratulations out of respect for the souls of the martyrs who fell as a result of the Israeli aggression, and I believe in what Imam Musa al-Sadr said that Lebanon "cannot be smiling while its South is in pain or crying"

🇱🇧 Additionally today, PM-designate Nawaf Salam gave a short speech that included:

- I thank everyone for the trust they have given me in these difficult circumstances to serve Lebanon.

- It is time to start a new chapter rooted in justice, security and opportunity.

- The most prominent challenge we face today is confronting the consequences of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon.

Reconstruction is not just a promise, but a commitment.

- The government I will form will have to develop an integrated program to build a modern and productive economy that provides job opportunities for the rising generations.

- The basis of political reforms is to work simultaneously to implement the Taif Agreement and fill its gaps.

This can only be achieved through extensive administrative decentralization.

- We will work with to do justice to the victims of the Beirut Port and their families.

- I do not exclude or isolate others, but rather one a person people of unity and national partnership, and the hands are extended for rescue, reform and reconstruction.

🇱🇧 Today a delegation from the Lebanon Shia council met with Aoun, head by Sheikh al-Khatib.
"We are confident and certain that President Joseph Aoun has the specifications and will to implement the oath speech and true national unity to protect Lebanon, its sovereignty and liberate it from the Israeli enemy."

🇱🇧 The first batch of trained soldiers joined the army within the framework of the first phase of the plan to strengthen the military units deployed in the south, which includes recruiting 6,000 personnel with the aim of implementing Resolution 1701 and its provisions.

The volunteers began following the training courses in the specialized units in order to be distributed to the units.

دورة مقاتل، فرع الجيش اللبناني

Regarding this, it wasn't a drone strike. The Israelis dropped two sound grenades in the town using a drone

I knew the photo was familiar...

🇱🇧l🇮🇱 Additional armed Israeli drones were buzzing over Beirut and notably over Dahyeh

🇱🇧l🇮🇱 Earlier today, two Israeli jets were spotted over Beirut at very high altitude

📍How did the Lebanese independent and Nationalist MPs react to being asked about the Israeli drones over Beirut?

Mark Daou on the Israeli drones flying on the night of the presidential election:

They are filming the Lebanese people happy, with smiling faces.

He's talking about the same drones that killed and contributes in the murder of thousands of Lebanese Shia a mere month ago!

How is this acceptable? How can they joke about an armed drone over the capital by an enemy army like this!?

🇱🇧 And after joking about the drones that killed and maimed thousands of Lebanese Shia, Mark would say in TV:

"I represent the Shia, like any other Shia MP"

🇱🇧 To make the situation worse, the head of communication of the Lebanese Forces party openly said that he is thankful Hezbullah's support for didn't stop before the October war, else Hezbullah's loses would have been less!

During this war 4,000 Lebanese were killed and 20,000 injured. During this war the Lebanese border villages were destroyed.

He's openly celebrating the results of the Israeli war. This is who they are, yet they wants us to trust them?

🇱🇧 Similarly, the mutt, Jordanian Palestinian but made Lebanese Wadah Sadeq openly attacked Hezbullah and Amal and stated they do not represent Lebanese Shia.

In light of the elections, he either is trying to imply he rejects the evidence of the elections or Shia are sheep who don't know how or what to vote for.

🥀 His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah (may God be pleased with him) said:

"Whoever wants to disarm the resistance by force, and we have said it on more than one occasion, we will cut off his hand, cut off his head, and take away his soul."

🇱🇧l🇸🇾 An illegal border crossing was closed today by the Syrian Security Forces following clashes last night with smugglers on border with Lebanon.

نبقى الأقوى، بإيماننا، بمقاومتنا، بعقيدتنا، بصبرنا، بصمودنا، بإرادتنا، بسيادتنا، بشموخنا، بشهدائنا، بجرحانا، بجمهورنا، بكبارنا، بصغارنا، بأصواتنا، بموقفنا، بعنادنا... أُصِبنا بجراحٍ لو أصابت أعتى الجيوش لأسقطته، لكننا لم نسقط، ولن نسقط، لو اجتمع الكون كلّه، نُسقِطُه ولا نسقط

By a member of Hezbullah's military media on X
