The Lebanese army announced on Tuesday that it had begun deploying to an area in the south, one of three “pilot zones” outlined in a deal with Israel to disarm Hezbollah.The announcement came with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun visiting Washington, which sponsored the deal with Israel, for a meeting with his US counterpart Donald Trump.
To date, Israeli troops have only controlled the outskirts of one of the so-called pilot zones, with their occupation of other areas yet to be addressed.
The Lebanese military already has a presence in the other two pilot zones.”Military units began deploying this morning to Zawtar al-Garhbiya” in the Nabatieh region, the army said in a statement.An AFP correspondent saw military vehicles, one of them flying the Lebanese flag, entering the village which sits on the edge of what Israel has dubbed the “security zone”.
