Lebanese Prime Minister: We Seek Successive Israeli Withdrawals from Southern Lebanon

According to a report from the Qatar News Agency (QNA), the Lebanese government has expressed an intention to pursue successive Israeli withdrawals from Southern Lebanon. The report claims that the Lebanese leadership is actively engaging in international contacts to secure support for a complete withdrawal from the territory and to bring an end to ongoing regional hostilities.

However, the report contains significant factual inaccuracies regarding the current political leadership of Lebanon. It identifies Nawaf Salam as the Prime Minister and General Joseph Aoun as the President. In reality, Najib Mikati currently serves as the Prime Minister of Lebanon, and the office of the President has remained vacant since October 2022. General Joseph Aoun serves as the Commander of the Lebanese Armed Forces, not as the President of the country.

Due to these fundamental errors in identifying the heads of state and government, the claims attributed to these individuals cannot be verified as accurate representations of official Lebanese policy. NoorNews advises caution regarding this report, as it misidentifies the primary actors involved in the stated diplomatic efforts.
