黎巴嫩军方已在黎南部据点大规模解除了真主党的武装,这在一定程度上得益于以色列情报部门的帮助。黎巴嫩新政府目前正在执行去年与以色列达成的停火协议,协议生效后双方结束了激烈交火。美国和以色列官员表示,这一进展令人惊喜,对维系去年11月份达成的脆弱的停火协议至关重要。现在的问题是,黎巴嫩政府能否在南部完成这项任务,并将行动扩展到该国其他地区。Copyright ©2025 Dow Jones & Company, Inc. All Rights Reserved. 87990cbe856818d5eddac44c7b1cdeb8

BEIRUT—Lebanon’s only commercial airport sits in the heart of a densely populated area of southern Beirut largely controlled by Hezbollah. The militant group has for years used it as a smuggling channel and a lever to assert its dominance in the country. Now the country’s new government, with U.S. support, is trying to take it back.
