Hezbollah MP Hassan Fadlallah on Tuesday demanded the state to shoulder its responsibilities, accusing it of inadequacy, negligence, helplessness, and even complicity.

"The state is responsible for its people, and we want it to fulfill its duties," Fadlallah said, adding that Hezbollah is working to compel the state to address four key issues -- the withdrawal of Israeli forces from occupied territories in south Lebanon, halting Israeli attacks, releasing Lebanese prisoners, and the reconstruction of war-hit regions.

President Joseph Aoun said Tuesday that he is working with all concerned parties to avoid dragging Lebanon into a new war.

"Regaining the trust and support of foreign countries will be a natural result of rebuilding the state on firm foundations, specifically the (state's) monopoly on arms," Aoun said, adding that he is working to achieve these goals with "rationality, realism, and responsibility."

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam met Tuesday with Jordan's Prime Minister Jaafar Hassan, on the sidelines of his participation in the World Governments Summit in Dubai.

Hassan proposed an initiative to hold a tripartite Syrian–Lebanese–Jordanian meeting in Amman, to discuss energy and electricity files, Lebanon's National news Agency said.

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam urged Arab countries to stand by Lebanon and to participate in the army support conference that will be held next month in Paris, as he attended on Tuesday the World Governments Summit in the UAE.

Salam said Lebanon is committed to reforms that would encourage investments and now has the war and peace decision, asking Arab "brothers" to support the crisis and war-hit country in its reformist journey and to participate "actively" in the army support conference.

Israel has informed Washington that any Hezbollah strike on Israel will be met with a response resembling the 2024 war against the Iran-backed group, U.S. sources said.

The first week of February started with high-level diplomatic missions as Israel intensified its strikes on Lebanon, wounding at least 20 people and killing at least two over the weekend and into Monday.

As President Joseph Aoun kicked off a two-day visit to Spain, with Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam was heading to the United Arab Emirates to attend the World Government Summit, and Army Chief Rodolphe Haykal was set to discuss in Washington the army's plan to disarm Hezbollah.

Arab and international capitals are discussing a seven-point settlement for the issue of Hezbollah’s weapons, senior diplomatic sources said.

Below are the seven points according to al-Liwaa newspaper:

Israeli airstrikes targeted two buildings Monday in the southern towns of Kfar Tibnit and Ain Qana after the Israeli army issued evacuation warnings.

The Israeli military's Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee said the buildings contained "military infrastructure belonging to Hezbollah."

UNIFIL called Monday on Israel to stop violating resolution 1701 after the Israeli army dropped Sunday unknown chemical substances from airplanes over Lebanon.

On Sunday morning, the Israeli army informed UNIFIL that they would be carrying out an aerial activity dropping what they said was a non-toxic chemical substance over areas near the Blue Line.

President Joseph Aoun met Monday with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez at La Moncloa Palace in Madrid, as he arrived in Spain to sign several bilateral agreements, amid intensified Israeli strikes on south Lebanon.

Aoun urged Spain, after his meeting with Sánchez, to pressure Israel within the European Union to commit to the implementation of a ceasefire agreement reached in November 2024.
