04.07.2025The Day Hezbollah's Arms Were Weighed
The day's headlines in Lebanon centered on a significant shift regarding Hezbollah's military status, following previous days' focus on the US Barrack proposal. Early reports reiterated the "carrot and stick" approach and intensified pressures. By mid-morning, multiple outlets reported that Hezbollah was studying a reduction of its role as an armed movement or its weapons arsenal. This marked a development from the group's previously firm stance. Discussions progressed with reports of President Aoun and Speaker Berri agreeing on a response, and Barrack explicitly stating disarmament required incentives. By the afternoon, media highlighted an impending 48-hour reply from Hezbollah and reports that the group was open to abandoning its "heavy weapons," linking this to President Aoun addressing state arms exclusivity. Regional security, including Syria's readiness for disengagement with Israel and Aoun's denial of border fighter build-up, also featured.
