Hezbollah-UN Meeting Discusses Risks of Potential Escalation in South Lebanon amid Repeated Israeli Attacks
Hezbollah's Liaison and Coordination Unit Head, Hajj Wafiq Safa, met with the UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert to discuss the latest developments in South Lebanon. According to a statement issued by Hezbollah Media Relations, the meeting comes in the context of the regular coordination between the two sides. The meeting tackled the Security Council Resolution 1701 and current developments in southern Lebanon, the statement maintained. 'The meeting also addressed developments along the Blue Line, repeated Israeli attacks on Lebanon, the risks of potential escalation, and the need to adhere to and comply with the UN resolution to maintain stability in the region.' On Friday, Al-Manar correspondent reported that the Lebanese Army units found Israeli spy cameras while removing earthen berms erected by the enemy in the outskirts of Bloda border town, South Lebanon. Israeli occupation warplanes launched a wave of intense airstrikes across southern and eastern Lebanon late Thursday night, marking a blatant violation of Lebanese sovereignty amid state silence.

None Can Disarm Hezbollah: Top Security Official
Head of Hezbollah's Liaison and Coordination Department, Hajj Wafiq Safa, said that the term of 'Hezbollah disarm' only exists on the social media accounts of the provokers who show grudge against the Resistance. In an interview with Al-Nour Radio Station, Safa stressed what is being discussed is only the defense strategy after the Israeli enemy withdraws from all the Lebanese territories, releases the prisoners, halts hostilities and implement the UN Resolution 1701. The defense strategy starts with providing the Lebanese Army with the needed weapons (from US, China, Russia, whatever) in order to defend the country against the Israeli aggression, according to Hezbollah's top security official. Hezbollah official recalled the recent attacks on the eastern borders, underlining the importance of preserving the weapons. Safa reassured the resistance supporters, 'Disregard the illogical exaggerations. There is no military power that can disarm Hezbollah.' Safa dismissed any trend to target the Shia participation in the public institutions, stressing that the security and military appointments took place in coordination with Hezbollah and Amal Movement. The Resistance supporters must trust Hezbollah and its command as they used to trust the Master of the Umma's Martyrs Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah.
