❗️Washington informed Baabda of an Israeli threat to Beirut airport in the event of receiving the Iranian plane, and the decision to prevent it came with the approval of the three Lebanese authorities, out of concern for the airport’s security.

Submitting to Israeli threats during peacetime is going to be catastrophic.

Once you agree to one thing, it'll only snowball and when it does, Lebanon will descend into internal chaos and expose the whole damn country to Israel.

Btw again needless to explain but we live with mentally challenged people.

When Hezbullah's Minister asked Iranian planes not to land in Lebanon during the war, was because there was a war ongoing and the threat was real.

So there was no need to risk the airport getting attacked, especially that the planes won't be carrying anything Lebanon needs at that moment

BUT

When the war ended, the threat subsided and hostilities ended. Therefore, Israel lost the leverage when they signed a ceasefire deal. A deal that ensures Lebanon's sovereignty and doesn't include a foreign power dictating us.

Thus, during peacetime banning the planes is a mistake, especially in this manner. It's an infringement of our sovereignty and an attack on the friendly and brotherly state of Iran.

Planes can be searched similar to any other Lebanese plane landing in Lebanon with no special treatment like how it always been.

This is the difference. They are not one. The state cannot treat the Shia like this and the state cannot submit to the U.S.

Playing both sides is good for the Lebanese state, to ensure the U.S. doesn't sanction us and this is the free space Hezbullah always wanted the state to navigate in to ensure it isn't affected by the repercussions.

Submitting is not allowed, and is unacceptable and won't last. Lebanese Shia are already under represented in Lebanon but they are 33%+ of the county's population.

Population aside, they are the most lively sect despite the pain, the sacrifices, the loss and the few bad apples. They won't submit and they have a loyal brave leadership.

❗️A UN vehicle was burned on the airport road area tonight

🇺🇳 Earlier today, the Irish UN forces were watching the IDF transport explosives to demolish civilian houses in Yaroun.

What did they do? Eat an apple.

Israel demolitions are still ongoing as the time of this post
🤬82👍22🫡11👀1
🇱🇧l🇮🇱 The explosions that were heard some time ago are due to major demolition operations carried out by the occupation army in Adaisseh, Kfar Kila and Mays al-Jabal

That's civilian houses being turned into rubble

❗️Al-Manar correspondent:

The Lebanese army was scheduled to enter a number of border towns in southern Lebanon tomorrow. Israeli procrastination once again thwarts their mission.

📹 The Lebanese army has sent reinforcements to the airport road to suppress the events and has been reported to have shot several people
1🤬65👍31🫡13👎6👀1
🇱🇧 Btw the Lebanese army arrested yesterday many, despite the peaceful nature of the events, including Ali Noun (22 y.o) whose family was not allowed to contact him or know about him anything.

Expect a lot more arrests today, because the U.N were attacked and a car was torched.

🇱🇧 In the Lebanese army's first statement in days, despite ongoing Israeli demolitions and airstrikes etc etc etc

Statement: Several areas, especially the vicinity of Rafic Hariri International Airport, are witnessing protests that include assaults and riots, including attacks on army personnel, attacks on vehicles belonging to the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), and attempts to close the airport road.

The Army Command warns citizens against continuing these practices that could create internal tension with dire consequences during the critical stage the country is going through.

The units continue to carry out security maintenance missions, and will work with all determination to prevent any infringement on civil peace and arrest those who disturb security.

اين المظليون..ذاقوا لظى المنون ومعهم المارينز

Hardships create men. Hardships never last because of the will of the men they create.

Whatever hardship it is, it'll eventually pass. Sacrifices are made but the good will always prevail

Hardships will always face those men and women who refuse to submit to a reality that goes against humanity and God's will on earth

For that, hardships will always exist and these men will always face these hardships in a never ending cycle of two things: victory, or victory through martyrdom

📸 A collection of photos showing the Israeli army building a bases in Al-Hamamis hill that over looks Khiyam town, Al-Mari and al-Wazani.

This is one 5 Israeli bases being built in Lebanon that goes against the ceasefire agreement that stipulates a full Israeli withdrawal.

The IDF could have left, but they don't want to. Eventually they will leave, but I wish they would without the need to spill more blood by everyone.

But so is the reality, freedom comes at a cost and the world doesn't respect the weak

❗️Minister of Justice Adel Nassar contacted the Public Prosecutor, Judge Jamal Al-Hajjar, and asked him to move to investigate the events on the airport road and take the necessary legal measures.

Nassar is from the anti-Hezbullah Kataeb party.

🇱🇧l🇮🇱 The IDF closed 3 out of 5 gaps it opened in the border wall between Metulla and Kfar Kila

They were open during the war and now closed because they will withdraw from this area

It's unacceptable that Amal and Hezbullah condemned today's action on the airport road.

These people are from you and doing this for you, you have no right to treat them as "unknown masked men with bad motives"

Yes attaching the UN was not the right thing to do at all, but tackle this matter by guiding the people who is being pressured by the state and pressuring literally you to submission.

Anyways. All good. Give things time. Reporting is starting to get annoying because keeping refreshing to get updates is burning me out.

Things don't change in minutes or hours but in days and weeks and months. Goodnight

🇱🇧 Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemns the attack on UNIFIL forces and demands the arrest of those involved

Expect the same statement by the majority of the Lebanese officials soon.

Everyone of these people who didn't issue a single statement about the Israeli demolitions, airstrikes, and occupation.

Hezbullah's Al-Manar and official's denoscription of protestors tonight in that way has triggered the most open and violent attack by Hezbullah supporters on Al-Manar and the officials that I have ever witnessed and maybe for the first time in decades created a crack in the relationship between the base, who is seeing this condemnation as sellout and weakness to tackle the major and grave Lebanese state discrimination against the shia and hezbullah Itself, and Hezbullah who is worried about appeasing the state for calm and cooperation and worried about the media image of the protests.

Someone needs to talk to the people soon and someone has to bridge the gap and clear the confusion
