The Lebanese government has delayed its decision on whether to disarm Hezbollah, pushing further discussions to Thursday, 14 August.
The issue remains one of the most divisive in Lebanon’s political landscape, with Hezbollah maintaining significant political influence and a powerful armed wing.
Islamists view the terrorist group as a necessary resistance force against Israel, while critics argue its military capabilities undermine state sovereignty and fuel instability.
The delay highlights ongoing political deadlock as the country grapples with economic collapse, public discontent, and regional tensions.
Analysts warn that continued postponement risks deepening divisions and weakening Lebanon’s ability to assert full state control.
