Most opposition MPs do not back Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea’s stance on boycotting presidential vote sessions should Hezbollah secure 65 votes for Marada Movement chief Suleiman Franjieh, a media report said on Thursday.

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri will not call for another "theatrical" session that would not elect a president.

U.S. State Department Rewards for Justice Program has offered a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to the disruption of the financial mechanisms of Hezbollah.

The International Support Group for Lebanon (ISG) -- launched by the U.N. Secretary-General with former President Michel Sleiman to help mobilize support and assistance for Lebanon’s stability, sovereignty and state institutions -- urged Thursday the political leadership and MPs to elect a new president "without further delay."

"As the presidential vacancy enters its fifth month, amid lacking reforms, entrenching positions and deepening polarization, the International Support Group for Lebanon is gravely concerned about the ramifications of a prolonged presidential vacuum," the ISG said in a statement.

General Security chief Maj. Gen. Abbas Ibrahim, who has mediated the release of Westerners held in Syria and also acted as a mediator within Lebanon, stepped down Wednesday after attempts to extend his term failed.

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea has considered any dialogue with Hezbollah and the FPM over presidency, as unlikely.

"All of Hezbollah's calls for dialogue are fake and misleading," Geagea said, in remarks published Wednesday, as he told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper that when Hezbollah calls for dialogue, what it really wants is discussing the nomination of Marada leader Suleiman Franjieh.
