Lebanese army threatens to end cooperation with ceasefire committee after Israeli strikes in Beirut

Lebanon's army threatened to withdraw cooperation with the ceasefire committee monitoring the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire over Israeli airstrikes in Beirut, the Associated Press reported on Friday. The military force complained that Israel's strikes weakened the role of Lebanon's army, according to the report.

The warning came after the IDF said it struck Hezbollah's underground drone manufacturing facilities in the southern Beirut suburbs. While Israel warned civilians to evacuate ahead of the strikes, much criticism was directed at the fact the attacks were carried out on the eve of the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Adha.

“The Israeli enemy violations of the deal and its refusal to respond to the committee is weakening the role of the committee and the army,” the Lebanese army said in its statement, adding that it would discontinue cooperation with the committee “when it comes to searching posts” should the strikes continue.
