Origin: Lebanon Prepares Plan to Disarm Hezbollah
On December 23, 2025, Lebanon's government directed the army to prepare a detailed plan to disarm all armed factions within the country, including Hezbollah. This move reflects growing public support for disarming these groups amid ongoing tensions.
The directive comes as Lebanon grapples with internal security challenges and external pressures, particularly from Israel, which has maintained a military presence in the region.
The Lebanese government's decision is seen as a significant step towards consolidating state authority and addressing the influence of armed factions like Hezbollah, which has been a dominant force in Lebanese politics and military affairs.
While the plan to disarm Hezbollah has garnered support, the specifics of implementation remain unclear, with potential resistance from the group itself and its supporters.
In the coming weeks, the Lebanese army is expected to outline the details of this disarmament plan, which could lead to significant changes in the country's security landscape.
