Lebanon Dismantles 'More than 500' Hezbollah Installations, PM Says
- On Thursday, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam reported that the military has taken down over 500 Hezbollah weapons sites and military installations in southern Lebanon.
- This dismantling comes after a November ceasefire agreement that mandated Hezbollah to withdraw from territories below the Litani River, enabling the government to reestablish control and comply with international reform requirements.

- The government presses reforms demanded by international donors, including lifting banking secrecy and restructuring the financial sector, aiming to recover from a deep financial crisis driven by past mismanagement.
