On March 2, Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel – though the decision for it to do so was almost certainly made by Iran – carrying Lebanon into a new war with Israeli forces. On the same day, Lebanon's government declared Hezbollah's military and security activities illegal. Shortly thereafter, army commander General Rodolphe Haykal made it clear to Prime Minister Nawaf Salam that the military did not have the means to implement the government's decision. Now, the Lebanese army finds itself in an uncomfortable position.

Israel is reportedly preparing for a major ground invasion of Lebanon, with plans to seize the entire area south of the Litani River and dismantle Hezbollah’s military infrastructure. Israeli and American officials have signalled that such an operation is no longer hypothetical. If it happens, Lebanon will face destruction and displacement not seen in decades. For a country already battered by war and economic collapse, the stakes could hardly be higher.

Twenty-six prisoners fled from a prison in western Lebanon on Monday, according to local media.
The prison break took place in Bekaa Valley, with most of the escapees convicted of drug and weapons trafficking charges, the National News Agency reported.
Lebanese authorities have yet to issue an official statement on the prison break.
Prisons are overcrowded in Lebanon amid a months-long economic crisis gripping the Arab country.
The crisis has further degraded Lebanon's already dismal jails, with poor conditions and lack of medical care regularly sparking prion riots and unrest.
