Qassem said in a statement that any attempt to link Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon to the group’s disarmament crossed “all red lines.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWe say to the Lebanese authorities, it is time for you to retract your sins that are destroying Lebanon,\u201d Qassem asserted.<\/p>\n

The United States, Israel, and Lebanon signed the trilateral framework agreement<\/a> aimed at combating Iran-backed Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah on Friday, after days of US-mediated talks in Washington.<\/p>\n

According to a US State Department statement, the agreement outlines a structured process for disarming Hezbollah<\/a>, dismantling terrorist infrastructure, and enabling the IDF to withdraw from Lebanon in phases as the threat posed by Hezbollah is removed.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the US will take measures to enhance the capabilities of the Lebanese Armed Forces and support Lebanon’s military efforts against Hezbollah.<\/p>\n

The agreement received praise from both Israeli and Lebanese officials.<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described it as \u201ca major achievement for the State of Israel\u201d in a public video address.<\/p>\n

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun referred to the signing as \u201cthe first step on the path to restoring Lebanon’s sovereignty\u201d in a post on X\/Twitter on Friday, following the framework’s signing in Washington.<\/p>\n
