25.09.2026 ⇢ The Day Salam Told the UN Only the State Spoke for Lebanon
⌨

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam delivered Lebanon's address at the General Assembly, telling delegates that no one spoke for Lebanon except the state and listing three existential challenges to restore statehood, while urging additional humanitarian funding, a timetabled framework agreement and no security vacuum after UNIFIL. The line, previewed in his meetings with al-Sharaa and Pezeshkian, drew applause and domestic echo as Foreign Minister Issa tied Hezbollah disarmament to peace and the end of UNIFIL's need, while Hezbollah MP Fadlallah said the door to a political solution remained open without submission.

On the ground, editors reported Israeli raids setting southern valleys ablaze, shelling, an incursion in Kfarchouba and encirclement of a farm, with Israeli media cited on a new combat phase within days and refusal to renew UNIFIL. Parallel reporting cited an Iranian proposal to reopen Hormuz within seven days conditioned on a Lebanon ceasefire.
