Elements within Lebanon opposing Hezbollah are concerned that the organization may attempt to destabilize the Lebanese government through assassinations and security incidents, according to a report by Kan News. Amid potential renewed conflict between Israel, the United States, and Iran, Lebanon is preparing for the possibility that Hezbollah could become involved, similar to its actions during Operation "Lion's Roar." However, Lebanese leadership is reportedly more worried about Hezbollah directing its actions inward against the Lebanese government rather than outward towards Israel.
A source from the anti-Hezbollah camp told Kan News that recent public threats and warnings from Hezbollah officials against the government could signal preparations for a significant internal move. This concern is compounded by the recent seizure of a truck carrying explosives intended for the organization, which has heightened tensions between Hezbollah and the Beirut leadership. The source added that Lebanese leadership is holding security discussions regarding the possibility of Hezbollah igniting internal conflict within Lebanon, and that parties opposing the group are increasing their security measures in response to this fear.
