Hezbollah condemns Lebanon-Israel talks

Hezbollah has issued a strong condemnation of the Lebanese government's decision to engage in talks with Israel, labeling the move a 'national sin' that will deepen political and social rifts within the country. The statement, released on Wednesday, underscores the severe polarization in Lebanon as the Iran-backed group continues its cross-border war with Israel. This criticism directly challenges the diplomatic efforts, such as the recent Washington meeting, that some Lebanese officials have welcomed as a potential path to de-escalation.
