Lebanon reportedly proposes int'l observation post in Ali al-Taher
Lebanon, through its negotiating delegation, is currently considering incorporating the Ali al-Taher hills and surrounding towns into an expansion of the first pilot zone, a Western diplomatic source told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper.
The proposal entails establishing an international observation post there --backed by the United States -- alongside the deployment of the Lebanese Army, with the U.S.-led Military Technical Committee for Lebanon (MTC4L) playing a key role in verifying the Lebanese Army's control over the area, the source added.
