Hezbollah Calls Lebanon-Israel Talks a ‘Grave Sin’, Vows to Stay Armed
Hezbollah deputy leader Naim Qassem has strongly rejected planned direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel. He warned that these talks threaten national stability and amount to a betrayal of Lebanese interests. The Lebanese government hopes to turn a fragile ceasefire into a formal peace deal to secure Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon. But Qassem insisted that Hezbollah will ignore any diplomatic outcome and keep its weapons until all occupied land is freed. Tensions remain high despite the April 17 truce. Since early March, more than 2,500 people have been killed in Lebanon, with both sides accusing each other of ceasefire violations.
