🇺🇸l🇱🇧 And while a civilian airliner was not allowed to land in Lebanon yesterday, U.S. military cargo planes continue to land in Beirut and Hamat airports from unknown locations, with no registration visible, no track, no hex, no info.

And this has been ongoing for years, before the war and after the war.

📹 🇱🇧 Footage of the gathering of the Future Movement party in downtown Beirut to commemorate the event.

Decent yet modest gathering, especially that this is the return of Saad back to Lebanon and politics.

🇱🇧 Hariri made many remarks, below are some:

It's funny to note that people are melting that he didn't mention Hezbullah or accuse it of killing his father and only put responsibility on Syria.

Yes, Hezbullah didn't kill him nor anyone who died between 2005-2011+

- Many crises violated the Lebanese, and after that I submitted my resignation and we made way, but the crises remained and increased

- I bow before all the martyrs of our people in the South, the Beqaa, Beirut, the suburbs and all the regions. I raise my head with the solidarity you expressed during the war when you opened your homes to the afflicted and received the displaced and said in action, not words: "Lebanon is one and the Lebanese are one body"

- It is our collective responsibility to confront the aggression. It is our collective responsibility to restore the unified Lebanese body and rebuild the destroyed areas.

Saad Hariri to the people of the South, Beqaa and the suburbs: You are partners in the golden opportunity available to Lebanon, but any previous impression that you are a force of obstruction, bullying and weapons must be broken.

He then talks about only state weapons, implementing 1701, Israeli withdrawal, etc

🇱🇧 Lebanese Foreign Minister George Rage: "The ministry is in intensive contact with the Ministry of Public Works and Civil Aviation, the Middle East Airlines Company, and the Lebanese Embassy in Tehran, with the aim of ensuring the return of Lebanese citizens to Beirut as soon as possible."

🇱🇧l🇮🇷 Quoting LBC: After Middle East Airlines asked the Iranian authorities to allow two planes to land at Tehran Airport, Iranian Civil Aviation responded that the request must be submitted through the Lebanese Foreign Ministry according to the laws followed between the two countries, and the Lebanese ambassador to Iran is coordinating the process, noting that Friday is a holiday in Iran.

❗️The Israeli occupation forces have intensified their work on the Hamames Hill facing Khiyam.

They are digging bunkers, barriers, and doing constructions on the hill, where Israel plans to remain after its withdrawal from the Lebanese towns.

❗️ Officially, the IDF is only leaving Lebanese towns and will not leave the Lebanese hills, violating the most important clause in the ceasefire agreement.

By violating that and reinterpreting? They are allowing everyone else to reinterpret anything. Remember this well.

🇱🇧l🇺🇸l🇮🇱 Cessation of Hostilities (Israel/Hezbollah) Implementation “Mechanism” met for the fifth time in Naqoura today.

According to the readout:

- “The attendees conducted military technical planning for the transfer of all remaining villages in the Southern Litani Area to full Lebanon army control prior to Feb. 18."

- "I am confident that LAF will control all population centers in the Southern Litani Area before next Tuesday."

- However, it is important to remember that the Cessation of Hostilities arrangements have many components in the 13 paragraphs, and we will continue to assist with the implementation of all of these principles, even beyond the 18th of February”

Notice how Jasper said "population centers" and not the border area!? Ffs

And knowing how weak the Lebanese state, they won't give weight to this occupation, and treat it as non-existent exactly how our Syrian neighbors are treating the Israeli occupation of southern Syria

It's important that they don't mention anything about any further demilitarization of north it Litani.

As for clause 13, it's really just about border demarcation. Nothing serious. It is below:


13. Israel and Lebanon request that the United States – with the partnership of the United Nations – facilitate indirect negotiations between Israel and Lebanon with the objective of resolving remaining disputed points along the Blue Line, consistent with resolution 1701

Btw for the hypocrite liars, the full deal is here as quoted by Israeli media: www.timesofisrael.com/full-text-the-israel-hezbollah-ceasefire-deal/

There are no secret clauses. You are simply trying to be more Zionist than the Israelis.

🇸🇾 Sydnaya prison in Syria?

What a shameful act, turning the entrance of a prison into a Cafe and a place to sell coffee and sweets. Genuinely pathetic.
