20.08.2025 ⇢ The Disarmament Plan, The Israeli Maneuvers
⌨The day's Lebanese media prioritized UNIFIL's uncertain future amid international debate, with early reports detailing Washington's calls for its end and Israeli military preparations, including a 60,000-troop call-up, raising concerns for Lebanon.

Discussions on the army's September disarmament plan continued, linked to Israeli compliance, amidst reports of Israeli military exercises simulating major escalation.
