Hezbollah says it will ignore cabinet disarmament decision

Hezbollah stated it would treat the Lebanese cabinet's decision to disarm it "as if it did not exist." The group called the move a "grave sin," claiming it undermines Lebanon's sovereignty and gives Israel a free hand to tamper with its security and future. This statement was a response to the Lebanese cabinet authorizing the army to create a plan restricting arms to only official security forces. Hezbollah has vowed to ignore this government directive.
