Hezbollah MP: US-sponsored Lebanon-Israel framework agreement 'null and void'

A Lebanese legislator from Hezbollah's political wing has sharply criticized the US-sponsored framework agreement between the Beirut government and the Tel Aviv regime, describing the deal as "null and void".

Ibrahim al-Moussawi, a member of the Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc, stated on Wednesday that "in the face of the immense sacrifices, steadfastness, loyalty, selflessness, morality, courage and valor offered by our fighters and martyrs ... we find in the Lebanese authorities a bottomless depth of depravity and baseness."

The lawmaker lamented that Lebanese authorities have "offered themselves cheaply and for nothing, submitting to American dictates and serving the Zionist project."

"This came after a regional equation imposed by the Islamic Republic of Iran, which serves Lebanon's interests in terms of a ceasefire and the withdrawal of the Israeli enemy," Moussawi added.

"The framework agreement is an agreement of humiliation, shame, subservience and surrender. It is null and void, worthless because it was born illegitimate. It violates the law, the constitution, and the National Pact," he said.

On Friday, a US-sponsored framework agreement was signed by Beirut and Tel Aviv, which is intended to enable a gradual Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and to diminish hostilities along the border.

According to the Lebanese Health Ministry, since March 2, Israel has been engaged in a military offensive in Lebanon that has resulted in the deaths of over 4,240 individuals, injured more than 12,190 others, and displaced more than 1 million people.
