Lebanese MP Gebran Bassil, the leader of the the Free Patriotic Movement, has said the framework agreement between Israel and Lebanon “requires responsible engagement”.

“It is beneficial if we regain all our rights, and dangerous if it is a recipe for strife,” he said on X.

“Everyone must avoid slipping into it, and not reject outright any path that liberates the land, strengthens the state, and establishes peace.”
