“For the first time since 1969, the Lebanese state — through the army and the armed forces — has full operational control over the south of the country,” Salam said.
Addressing comments by Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem about supporting Iran, Salam was unequivocal: “That will not be allowed at all. We will not permit anyone to drag Lebanon into a new adventure. We have had enough.”
He added that Lebanon had already paid a devastating price for past conflicts. “We entered what was called the ‘Gaza support war,’ and the cost to Lebanon was not just high — it was extremely, extremely high. No one is prepared to expose the country to that kind of adventure again.”

“No one is allowed to drag Lebanon into a new adventure,” the prime minister said. “We have had enough of adventures. We entered one called the ‘war in support of Gaza,’ and the price Lebanon paid was extremely heavy. No one is willing to see the country dragged into that kind of adventure again.”
