Lebanese Army expands Nabatieh deployment; mission reportedly excludes Hezbollah disarmament

The Lebanese Armed Forces is reinforcing Nabatieh and Zawtar al Gharbiyeh under the June 26 Trilateral Framework with the US and Israel. Lebanese reporting indicates the mission aims to contain escalation rather than disarm Hezbollah, despite the framework's stated goal of verified disarmament. This gap between stated framework objectives and actual mission scope raises questions about implementation and potential Israeli or US reaction.
