08.08.2025 ⇢ The State's Arms Decree Advances
⌨On August 8th, Lebanese media extensively covered the government's continued pursuit of a state arms monopoly. Following the previous day's approval of the US-backed proposal to end Hezbollah's armed presence, early reports detailed the withdrawal of Shiite ministers and initial protests by Hezbollah and Amal supporters. Throughout the morning and afternoon, reports clarified that the Shiite "Duo" was studying subsequent steps, signaling ongoing political engagement rather than a complete break. International bodies, including the GCC and Arab League, welcomed the decision, while an Iranian message reportedly urged Hezbollah not to surrender arms. Despite warnings from a Hezbollah MP, the overall narrative suggested Hezbollah was avoiding direct confrontation with the state. Concurrently, army intelligence reported dismantling dangerous gangs, reinforcing the state's assertion of authority. Political figures expressed optimism about the disarmament decision's implementation, affirming continued support for state restoration.

02:43⇢Arms Monopoly Decision Sparks Shiite Withdrawal
⌨The Lebanese government has officially approved a decision to task the army with ending Hezbollah's armed presence and establishing a state monopoly on weapons, adopting a key US-backed proposal (Addiyar, Lebanon24, L'Orient-Le Jour, Naharnet, LBC, LBCI). This action, widely welcomed by the US (LBC, LBCI, Naharnet), immediately prompted the withdrawal of Shiite ministers from the session and led to protests by Hezbollah and Amal supporters (Al Joumhouria, Lebanon24, L'Orient-Le Jour). Media discusses the implications of this "new reality" and Hezbollah's potential responses (El Nashra, Janoubia).
