Lebanon's President of the State, Najib Mikati, announced on Tuesday that heavy weapons have been delivered from Palestinian camps and placed in the custody of the Lebanese army, following discussions with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. President Abbas assured that additional batches will be transferred in the coming weeks, as previously agreed. The development comes as a government meeting, initially scheduled for Tuesday to discuss an army plan concerning Hezbollah, was postponed to Friday. This delay indicates ongoing deliberations regarding security strategies within Lebanon. In parallel, a soldier from the southern forces was killed by a Houthi sniper on the Fakhr Al-Shamal Front in Al-Dhali on Tuesday, according to South24. This incident highlights continued security challenges in the region. President Mikati's office expressed appreciation for the progress in weapon delivery, emphasizing the commitment to consolidating security and stability within Lebanon. The transfer of weapons is seen as a step towards strengthening state control over security matters.
