[Amman, Jordan] - CDM is on the ground in Amman, Jordan. Next stop - Beirut, Lebanon, to report on the developments in-country, and on Christian persecution in the region.
The Lebanese militant group has lost much of its power since the recent war with Israel. But it is balking at demands to surrender whatever is left of its once formidable arsenal, writes NYT.
The United States has presented Lebanon with a proposal for disarming Hezbollah by the end of the year, along with ending Israel's military operations in the country and the withdrawal of its troops from five positions in south Lebanon, according to a copy of a Lebanese cabinet agenda reviewed by Reuters.
The plan, submitted by U.S. President Donald Trump's envoy to the region, Tom Barrack, and being discussed at a Lebanese cabinet meeting on Thursday, sets out the most detailed steps yet for disarming the Iran-backed Hezbollah group, which has rejected mounting calls to disarm since last year's devastating war with Israel.
Hezbollah Chief Naim Qassem declared today -- There will be no life in Lebanon if the government tries to confront Hezbollah. The government bears full responsibility for any internal explosion and devastation in Lebanon. We will not surrender the resistance's weapons and will fight a Karbala battle to confront this Israeli-American project.
Hezbollah Chief Naim Qassem says that the upcoming street protests and unrest could extend to the US Embassy in Lebanon, reported Clash Report.
Hezbollah believes the Lebanese government's decision to disarm it could lead to a "civil war."
