Kataeb Party leader Samy Gemayel accused Hezbollah of threatening Lebanon's national security and civil peace, criticizing the group's alleged security activities in Mount Lebanon and its involvement in regional conflicts.

In a post on X, Gemayel said Hezbollah had lost sight of its role in southern Lebanon while pursuing its involvement in conflicts across the region, referring to Jerusalem, Damascus and Sanaa.

"While chasing its battles in Jerusalem, Damascus and Sanaa, Hezbollah lost its way to southern Lebanon and ended up in Fanar, the Bsharri highlands and Tannourine, after Dahr al-Baydar," he wrote.

Gemayel argued that Hezbollah's actions, including dragging Lebanon into wars, defying decisions made by the Lebanese State, bringing an explosives-laden truck into the country and operating security groups in the heart of Mount Lebanon, constituted a direct threat to national security and civil peace.

He also questioned why the group's leadership had not been referred to the Judicial Council, Lebanon's highest judicial body for cases involving State security and other serious crimes.

"If all of this is not enough to warrant referring Hezbollah's leadership to the Judicial Council, then the council should be abolished," Gemayel said.
