Aoun denies reports about fighters build-up on Lebanon's eastern border
2025-07-05
[NAHARNET] President Joseph Aoun on Friday denied the reports about the alleged entry of gangs from Syria into Leb
...home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade....
and the reports about mobilization for incursions from Syria.

''No party can eliminate another party in Lebanon and no sect has an advantage over another. The latest Israeli war targeted entire Lebanon, while the economic war has not been merciful on any of its sons,'' Aoun said.

Warning of ''the enemies within the country who incite sectarianism out of keenness on their interests with foreign forces,'' the president said ''coordination is well underway with the Syrian side to prevent cross-border smuggling.''
