Hezbollah's deputy political council chairman warned that if Lebanese authorities do not restore relations with Iran and allow Iranian planes to land in Beirut, patience will run out. He threatened non-violent actions that would halt all flights and remove all ambassadors from Beirut.
Hezbollah's deputy political council chairman escalated pressure on the Lebanese government Monday evening, threatening to paralyze the country's air traffic and expel foreign ambassadors if Beirut does not restore ties with Iran. According to a report, the official warned that patience would run out if authorities fail to reverse the expulsion of Iran's ambassador and resolve the issue of Iranian planes landing at Beirut airport. The threat is the latest in a series of Hezbollah verbal offensives against the Lebanese government, which has been engaged in direct talks with the United States. As The Zioneer has reported, Hezbollah has repeatedly accused the government of surrendering to US and Israeli demands. The report also noted that the rhetoric appears coordinated with the Houthis in Yemen and likely directed by Iran, reflecting a timed escalation pattern.
