21.05.2025 โ‡ข Day Abbas and Aoun Declare End of Unauthorized Weapons
โŒจPalestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's visit to Beirut produced a landmark joint Lebanese-Palestinian statement declaring "the era of weapons outside state authority is over." This agreement, formalized in the morning, commits to placing Palestinian weapons under Lebanese state control and prevents using Lebanese territory for military operations. The statement represents a significant follow-through on discussions reported yesterday about dismantling Palestinian weapons within six months.

International tensions continued with reports that Israel is preparing strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities according to US intelligence. Morgan Ortagus is expected to return to Beirut with conditions for a full ceasefire, building on her previous statements that Lebanon still has "much to do."

Violence persisted in southern Lebanon with three reported Israeli assassinations, including one targeting a man in his bulldozer in Yater. The Finance Ministry encouraged taxpayers to take advantage of penalty settlements under new Law 328/2024.
