Rajji says Lebanon received warnings of major Israeli offensive
Lebanon has received warnings from Arab and international parties that Israel is preparing for a large-scale military operation against Lebanon, Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji said Friday.
"We are intensifying our diplomatic contacts to protect Lebanon and Lebanese facilities from any Israeli strike," the LF minister told Qatari al-Jazeera news channel, adding that Lebanon is currently far from a peace treaty with Israel.
"We are seeking to return to the Armistice Agreement," he said.
Speaker Nabih Berri and former Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat have both called for reviving the 1949 Armistice Agreement that ended the 1948 Arab-Israeli war.
Asas Media news portal reported Friday that the ceasefire committee, which now includes a Lebanese and an Israeli civilian negotiators, would discuss in its upcoming meetings the return to the 1949 Armistice Agreement.

You must not have a clue about anything. Lebanon has never ever stated that they will annihilate Israel. Lebanon wants peace and it always has. Certain political parties in Lebanon might want that just as certain political parties in Israel want to annihilate everyone around them but these are extremist views and not what the majority of people want. Most people want peace.
