Fadlallah says 80% of reconstruction done, urges government to do its part
Hassan Fadlallah, a member of the "Loyalty to the Resistance" bloc, emphasized that Lebanon's internal dialogue must prioritize confronting Israel as the country's enemy. He emphasized that freeing detainees and restoring national sovereignty are essential responsibilities for all Lebanese committed to their country. This, he argued, should be the primary focus of the state and its institutions. He stressed that "the defensive strategy is an internal matter for Lebanon, agreed upon by those who believe in these principles and consider Israel to be Lebanon's enemy." In his remarks, Fadlallah accused the U.S. administration of leading a "campaign against the Lebanese resistance, with support from certain groups in Lebanon," adding that these groups "are not qualified" to represent the Lebanese people or decide on the country's future. Fadlallah also addressed the ongoing reconstruction efforts, noting that 80% of housing and restoration projects have been completed despite internal challenges. He criticized the state's failure to address infrastructure and housing needs, urging the government to allocate the available funds for essential public works. He emphasized that reconstruction should not be politicized, and the government must take responsibility for rebuilding efforts.

Resistance in Lebanon... Possibilities to curb Zionist aggressions: Report
Beirut - Saba: Despite Hezbollah's reluctance to initiate a military response to the hostile actions perpetrated by the Zionist enemy, it is clear that the resistance in Lebanon will not remain idle in curbing these attacks, especially after the threat of resorting to other options, as warned by party's Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem. Amid the ongoing Zionist attacks on Lebanon, Hezbollah's assertion that it is exercising the utmost patience and deliberation in dealing with the enemy was striking, despite its conviction that armed resistance remains the only way to deter this enemy and defend Lebanon and its sovereignty. This conviction to threaten a response was clearly reflected in the party's Secretary-General's recent speech, where he issued a stern warning, including a threat to respond to the Zionist attacks. Qassem said, "We cannot accept an equation in which Israel invades Lebanon and roams freely as it pleases, while we watch. Everything has a limit, and everything has a specific scope. Do not underestimate what we say." He added, "Know that this resistance is present, present, and committed to the agreement at this stage. However, if Israel does not fully comply, and the Lebanese state is unable to achieve the desired outcome at the political level, we will have no choice but to resort to other options that are inconsistent with the current situation and do not reinforce the equation Israel desires." He also emphasized, "We will not allow anyone to rob us of our lives, our land, our pride, our dignity, and our patriotism. We will never allow that." We will not allow anyone to deprive us of our strength and capabilities in confronting this enemy." In this context, Brigadier General Elias Farhat, a researcher in military and strategic affairs, said in an interview with al-Manar TV that Sheikh Naim Qassem's call not to underestimate the resistance's capabilities means that Hezbollah's readiness for confrontation exists. However, the Lebanese political situation, and perhaps the regional situation as well, requires that this issue be left to the Lebanese state for now. Along with the threat of returning to other options, MP Ali Fayyad, a member of the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc, emphasized that "the persistence of attacks by the Zionist enemy results in deepening the legitimacy of the resistance and the will of the resistance among the Lebanese people, and returning matters to square one." He said, "The American today came, speaking on behalf of the Zionist enemy, to give us a choice between submission and surrender or war. We say with all frankness, full responsibility, and full awareness of the magnitude of the challenges: submission and surrender are out of our reach. Nothing can deprive the Lebanese of their right to defend themselves." He added, "Lebanon has committed, and we have committed, to implementing Resolution 1701, including the ceasefire. As for any other issues outside this context and the geographical scope of the resolution, they are a sovereign Lebanese matter, to be addressed by the Lebanese among themselves through appropriate means and methods. He continued: "There is only one way, and no other, to restore stability: the enemy's withdrawal from the five hills, the release of Lebanese prisoners, the cessation of hostilities in all their forms, and respect for Lebanese sovereignty, in compliance with Resolution 1701." He addressed the Zionist enemy, saying, "If it thinks that the resistance society will be broken and will abandon its right to defend its land and sovereignty, then it is deeply delusional and does not know that this society is resistant to subjugation, humiliation, and domination." MP Fayyad warned the Zionist enemy against "indulging in killing and destruction. However, it will find itself confronting the facts it believes it has finished or is escaping. But the magic will backfire." Regarding Hezbollah's confirmation of its readiness to respond to these attacks, Loyalty to the Resistance bloc member MP Ali Ammar said, "We are ready, and Hezbollah has fully recovered its strength and health on the political and material levels." In terms of security and field operations, "patience has limits," and it is up to the resistance and the resistance fighters to choose the appropriate time. He stressed that "Hezbollah does not want war, but if it is imposed on it, it is ready to deter any aggression." In this regard, the national and patriotic parties and forces in Lebanon affirmed that "the Zionist enemy's attempt to draw a new equation that allows it to attack Lebanon whenever it wants, and in any place, is a pure illusion." They said in a statement, "The resistance, which has granted the Lebanese state a mandate to take the necessary measures to defend national sovereignty, will not remain idle in the face of this open aggression. It possesses the capabilities, potential, and methods of struggle that will deter the Zionist enemy and make it regret its actions." Although Hezbollah continues to adopt a policy of strategic patience in the face of mobile Zionist attacks, analysts confirm that the party is preparing for the worst and is prepared to confront them whenever necessary and when the last straw arrives. However, this time, its leadership deems it appropriate, not according to the Zionist-American timing. Analysts point out to the Lebanese newspaper Al-Jumhuriya that the party is currently relying on the option of presenting the Lebanese state with the excuse, as it has granted it all the necessary mandate and opportunities to liberate the territory and prevent attacks through diplomatic means, despite its prior knowledge that these methods would be ineffective. In light of what the analysts have stated, writer and political analyst Qassem Kassir believes that Hezbollah is dealing with a high degree of flexibility regarding the recent situations and developments on multiple levels. He confirms to the Lebanon Debate website that the party is leaving the government, the Lebanese Army, and the international committee charged with supervising the implementation of the ceasefire to follow up on developments, as it is committed to this agreement and to not responding to Zionist attacks. Regarding the party's political discourse and internal performance, analyst Kassir says the party expresses readiness for internal national dialogue and works to strengthen internal unity. At the same time, however, the party emphasizes that if the aggression continues, it is prepared to confront challenges, especially given the dramatic developments in the region in all countries.

MP Ammar from Beirut's suburb: Resistance fully prepared to confront any new aggression
NNA - Member of the "Loyalty to the Resistance" parliamentary bloc, MP Ali Ammar, confirmed during his inspection of the site of the Israeli attack in the southern suburb, that 'the Israeli aggression on the southern suburb of Beirut is not new, but rather an extension of ongoing attacks that have not stopped, whether before or after the issuance of Resolution 1701.' Ammar indicated that 'the Israeli enemy has always proven that it is not deterred by, and does not respect, international resolutions or agreements that are supposed to restrict its aggressive practices,' stressing that 'this enemy can only be dealt with through the language of resistance, steadfastness and perseverance." "Hezbollah is exercising utmost patience and restraint in dealing with the enemy, but this patience has limits,' the MP asserted, affirming that 'the resistance still stands and continues, and is fully prepared to confront any new aggression.' Ammar considered that "some sides abroad, along with their domestic proxies, are trying to portray the resistance as weak or defeated, but the truth is quite the opposite." He emphasized that the resistance is at "its full strength and preparedness," reassuring that "this is not just moral rhetoric, but rather part of its ongoing responsibility to prepare for any Israeli aggression targeting Lebanon."

Israeli Airstrike Targets Residential Building in Beirut's Dahiyeh
Israeli occupation forces launched on Friday an attack on a residential building in the Jamous-Hadat area of Beirut's southern suburbs. This marks the first such assault on the region since the cessation of Israel's large-scale aggression on Lebanon on November 27, 2024. According to Al Manar's correspondent, Israeli aircraft destroyed one of the targeted buildings in Hadat. The attack involved three warning strikes by an Israeli drone, followed by the heaviest strike from Israeli warplanes. The Israeli drones continued to fly extensively at low altitudes over the area. Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the Israeli targeting of Beirut's southern suburbs, describing it as a 'serious escalation.' He denounced the Israeli attacks on civilians and safe residential areas, including those housing schools and universities. Salam emphasized the need to halt the Israeli enemy's continuous violations of ceasefire arrangements and called for the immediate withdrawal from areas still under Israeli occupation. Ibrahim Al-Mousawi, a member of the 'Loyalty to the Resistance' bloc, stated that 'this Israeli aggression cannot continue,' urging the Lebanese government to be transparent with the public. He called on the government to outline the measures it has taken to end the ongoing violations of Lebanon's sovereignty. These ongoing Israeli strikes on Lebanon constitute blatant violations of the ceasefire agreement and UN Security Council Resolution 1701. Despite these repeated breaches, the international body responsible for overseeing the ceasefire has taken no action to prevent further Israeli aggression.
