Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam visited the southern village of Zawtar Al-Gharbiya to plant a national flag, marking what he described as the beginning of a complete Israeli withdrawal from the region. During the visit, the Prime Minister pledged to initiate reconstruction efforts in the area.
The event follows diplomatic discussions between Lebanese leadership and the United States. Following a meeting with President Donald Trump in Washington, the Lebanese president stated that the state is prepared to disarm Hezbollah. However, officials emphasized that a full withdrawal of the Israel Defense Forces is a necessary prerequisite for the Lebanese government to successfully undertake that disarmament process.
