In an interview with Channel 14, an unnamed opponent of Hezbollah stated that the Lebanese army has no capabilities, according to a report by correspondent Ahikam Himmelfarb.
Channel 14 reported Wednesday that an unnamed opponent of Hezbollah said in an interview that the Lebanese army 'has no capabilities.' The statement, aired by the Israeli outlet, comes amid a broader debate over the Lebanese military's ability to enforce the framework agreement with Israel and disarm Hezbollah in southern Lebanon. The Zioneer has previously reported on Israeli concerns, including allegations by an Israeli official that the Lebanese army chief 'cooperates with Hezbollah' (June 11) and a Channel 14 report that Hezbollah has infiltrated the Lebanese military (June 29). The identity of the Hezbollah opponent was not disclosed in the Channel 14 report.
