Prime Minister Najib Mikati affirmed "Lebanon's support for a peaceful solution in the region, highlighting the crucial role of British support for the army in pushing in this direction." He pointed out that "Lebanon is committed to implementing international resolutions, especially Resolution 1701, and continuing cooperation between the army and UNIFIL."
In a related context, Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri insisted that "Lebanon adheres to Resolution 1701 and awaits its full implementation, emphasizing the need for Lebanese consensus to elect a president and complete reforms."

He stated, "It's time to eliminate more capabilities of those responsible for attacking us, and we will hold them accountable."
