Lebanon's PM urges Hezbollah and IRGC to cease hostilities

Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 21:39

TL;DR

Lebanon's Prime Minister called on Hezbollah and Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to stop fighting, according to a single report. The statement marks a rare direct appeal from the Lebanese premier to both the Shiite militia and its external patron.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Lebanon's Prime Minister issued a statement Wednesday evening calling on both Hezbollah and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to cease military operations. The call was reported by a single source and its precise context — whether it addresses a specific escalation or broader ongoing hostilities — was not detailed in the initial report. The appeal comes amid sustained Israeli operations in southern Lebanon and repeated IRGC threats against Israel. The Prime Minister's office has not issued an official English-language version of the statement. As The Zioneer has reported, the IRGC has on multiple occasions demanded a halt to Israeli actions in southern Lebanon, while Hezbollah has welcomed ceasefire frameworks but emphasized resistance. The current statement appears to be the first time the Lebanese premier has publicly addressed both Hezbollah and the IRGC together on a cessation of hostilities.
