An Israeli strike in southern Lebanon killed a husband and wife on Monday, including a man who lost his eyesight in Israel's pager attack against Hezbollah last year, according to Lebanese state media.

Israel has kept up attacks on Lebanon, usually saying it is targeting Hezbollah operatives or sites, despite a November ceasefire following more than a year of hostilities with the Iran-backed group.

Cabinet on Monday decided to keep the army's report on its arms monopoly plan confidential and to keep receiving monthly reports, as it suspended the license of the Hezbollah-linked Rissalat art association pending the end of investigations over its role in the illumination of the Raouche Rock with images of slain leaders Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine.

Interior Minister Ahmad al-Hajjar said the suspension idea came from Prime Minister Nawaf Salam. The minister had requested that the association's license be revoked.

Hezbollah has voiced support for “the stance taken by the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas in coordination and consultation with the rest of the Palestinian resistance factions regarding Trump’s plan to halt the Israeli war on Gaza.”

In a statement, Hezbollah said Hamas’ stance stems out of “extreme keenness on stopping the brutal Israeli aggression against our people in the Gaza Strip.”

Lebanese crooner-turned-fugitive militant Fadel Shaker surrendered himself to Lebanese authorities on Saturday after hiding in a Palestinian camp for over a decade, the Lebanese Army said said.

Shaker, a popular singer born to a Palestinian mother and a Lebanese father, was accused of taking part in 2013 clashes in Sidon, south Lebanon, that opposed Salafist Sheikh Ahmad al-Assir and his supporters with the Lebanese military which left 17 soldiers dead.

Hezbollah chief Sheikh Naim Qassem said that Washington's plan for a ceasefire in Gaza was "full of dangers", accusing Israel of using the proposal to achieve what it "failed" to do during the war.

Qassem suggested Israel would use the plan as pretext to take over the land and strip Palestinians of their self-determination, but said the decision of whether to accept it was ultimately Hamas'.

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has said that “foiling strife cannot occur at the expense of enforcing the law,” in reference to the latest controversy over Hezbollah’s illumination of the iconic Raouche Rock with images of its slain leaders Hassan Nasrallah and Hashem Safieddine.

The Israeli army on Thursday dropped grenades near UNIFIL peacekeepers working alongside Lebanese soldiers to provide security for civilian workers in the southern border town of Maroun al-Ras, UNIFIL said on Friday.

The workers were trying to clear ruins of homes destroyed in the latest war.

Al-Manar reporter and pro-Hezbollah activist Ali Berro on Friday failed to attend an interrogation session at the Raouche police department over the issue of the illumination of the Raouche Rock and launching verbal attacks on PM Nawaf Salam.

“Berro’s lawyer showed up and said that his client is a journalist … and can only appear before the Publications Court, but State Prosecutor Judge Jamal al-Hajjar ordered that he be summoned again to interrogation before the Raouche police station, saying that the appropriate measures would be taken if he fails to show up,” the National News Agency said.

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri stressed Friday that the May 2026 parliamentary elections will be held on time.

Berri added that “the remaining time does not allow for any amendment” of the electoral law, hinting that expats are supposed to vote for six newly-introduced seats and not the current 128 seats.

Following the controversy sparked by the illumination of the iconic Raouche Rock with images of slain Hezbollah chiefs Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and Sayyed Hashem Safieddine, Interior Minister Ahmad al-Hajjar on Friday demanded the dissolution of the Lebanese Art Association-Rissalat.

Hajjar accused Rissalat of violating a memo by Beirut’s governor, the assembly notice it had submitted, “the laws that govern public properties” as well as public order, noting that it did not have “an authorization or prior permission” to illuminate the rock.
