Lebanon Plans to Ban Hezbollah's Military Activities Amid Rising Israel-Hezbollah Tensions

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam announced plans to ban Hezbollah's military activities and has called on the group to surrender its weapons amid rising tensions with Israel. This follows Israeli airstrikes on Beirut in response to Hezbollah's missile and drone attacks targeting northern Israel, which Hezbollah described as defensive retaliation for the killing of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Hezbollah warned Israel against continued military actions, citing the right to respond at a time and place of its choosing.
