Arab League adopts resolution rejecting Hezbollah military activities in Lebanon - report
The Arab League Council adopted a resolution on Monday affirming solidarity with Lebanon and rejecting Iranian foreign influence and Hezbollah’s continued military activities.
On Monday, the Arab League Council took a stance against Hezbollah's military activities in Lebanon and Iranian influence, according to an exclusive report by L’Orient-Le Jour. The resolution, based on a draft Beirut proposal, affirmed support for Lebanon's independence and sovereignty. The council called for a state monopoly over weapons and security decisions, reflecting the government's recent decision to prohibit Hezbollah from military operations and require all weapons to be held exclusively by legitimate authorities.
The resolution also explicitly rejected foreign interference, particularly from Iran, which has been involved in numerous attacks against Arab states recently and attempted to link its support with a ceasefire in Lebanon. The council urged member states to provide international assistance to bolster Lebanon's defense. Additionally, the Arab League welcomed Israel's diplomatic efforts aimed at preventing Hezbollah from repositioning near the Israeli border and expressed hope that further steps would lead to Israel's withdrawal.
