The Lebanese Forces’ media department warned that Lebanon’s past wars showed the dangers of ignoring international resolutions. It stressed that had Resolution 1701 been fully implemented, recent escalations could have been avoided.
The statement backed Prime Minister Nawaf Salam and Foreign Minister Joe Rajji’s calls to uphold Lebanon’s international commitments and warned against smear campaigns targeting those defending the country's sovereignty.
“Those calling for the implementation of 1701 and the ceasefire are acting out of national concern,” it said, urging so-called resistance voices to support, not attack, those protecting Lebanon.
The statement concluded that Lebanon’s stability depends on full respect for international legitimacy, the exclusive authority of the Lebanese state over arms, and its control over decisions of war and peace
