UN warns of gap after UNIFIL visit to Lebanon

The article addresses the UN warning about a potential security vacuum in Southern Lebanon following the withdrawal of "UNIFIL" forces. Commander of the forces, General Diodano Abniara, emphasized the importance of diligent effort to prevent any such security gap, highlighting the necessity of cooperation with the United Nations and Lebanese authorities. The report points to possible security, humanitarian, and field risks if there is no capable substitute to assume the tasks currently carried out by UNIFIL. It also notes broad UN support for this stance from Lebanese MPs and the government. Additionally, it mentions an upcoming visit by a Saudi envoy to Lebanon within the next two weeks to discuss regional developments and Saudi positions regarding the Lebanese file, amid Israeli escalation, failed peace negotiations, and continued U.S. and Israeli rejection of extending UNIFIL’s mission. Limited alternative options are being considered, relying on military coordination with the Lebanese army and a monitoring force led by the United States.
