Prime Minister Nawaf Salam "strongly" condemned Monday Israeli threats to a Lebanese Engineer advocating for the reconstruction of his community in south Lebanon, re-iterating the government's full commitment to the reconstruction (of war-hit regions) and to the right of all residents of the South to "a safe and sustainable return."
Mazraani is a Lebanese activist and engineer from the southern border town of Houla. He founded the "Gathering of the Residents of the Southern Border Localities" to advocate for the reconstruction of war-hit villages, especially the southern border villages which were badly damaged in the latest Israeli war.

U.S. President Donald Trump said in a historic speech in Israel’s Knesset on Monday that “in Lebanon, the dagger of Hezbollah, long aimed at Israel’s throat, has been totally shattered.”
“My administration is actively supporting the new president of Lebanon (Joseph Aoun) in his mission to permanently disarm Hezbollah’s terror brigades. He’s doing very well,” Trump added, in a speech focused on the U.S.-brokered ceasefire and captive exhange deal between Israel and Hamas.

President Joseph Aoun on Monday called for negotiations with Israel, after U.S. President Donald Trump brokered a ceasefire in Gaza.
"The Lebanese state has previously negotiated with Israel under American and United Nations auspices, resulting in an agreement to demarcate the maritime border... so what prevents the same thing from happening again to find solutions to the outstanding issues," Aoun said according to a presidency statement.

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri has said that Israel's recent strikes on construction machinery in south Lebanon was a message that the south's "reconstruction is not allowed".
He told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper, in remarks published Monday that the destruction of more than 300 vehicles, including bulldozers, excavators, and cranes, used for removing rubble in order to begin the reconstruction effort, is an Israeli plan to turn the southern border towns into an "unlivable demilitarized buffer zone."

Syria’s justice minister will visit Beirut on Tuesday to follow up on the file of the Syrian prisoners held in Lebanon, media reports said.
The visit comes after Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shibani visited Lebanon on Friday, in the first trip to Beirut by a senior Syrian official since the ouster of Bashar al-Assad.

MP Ibrahim al-Moussawi of Hezbollah has said that “Prime Minister Nawaf Salam’s move to instruct the foreign minister to file a complaint to the U.N. Security Council over the latest Israeli attacks in the South was a step in the right direction, although it came late.”
“We look forward to further activation of the Lebanese diplomacy and governmental steps in this regard,” Moussawi added.

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea on Sunday called on Hezbollah to hand over its arms to the Lebanese state instead of criticizing it over Israel's attacks and the stalled reconstruction efforts.

The United Nations peacekeeping mission in Lebanon said Sunday that one of its members was wounded by an Israeli grenade dropped near a U.N. position in the country's south, the third incident of its kind in just over a month.

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun condemned Israel on Saturday for carrying out overnight strikes on civilian facilities that the health ministry said killed at least one person.
"Once again, southern Lebanon has been the target of a heinous Israeli aggression against civilian installations -- without justification or pretext," Aoun said.

Israel carried out intense airstrikes on southern Lebanon early Saturday, killing one person, wounding seven and briefly cutting a highway that links Beirut with parts of south Lebanon, the Health Ministry said.
The pre-dawn airstrikes on the village of Msayleh struck a place that sold heavy machinery, destroying a large number of vehicles.
