Amid escalating military tensions in southern Lebanon, the Arab League has opened a new channel of communication with Hezbollah aiming to advance efforts towards a truce with “Israel” amid warnings of a potential large-scale war.

Recent speculations have arisen about the possibility of Hezbollah in Lebanon recruiting fighters from other Iran-backed factions if a full-scale war erupts with “Israel,” amidst escalating tensions.

In a time when Lebanon and Cyprus, an EU member state, share "strong relations," the small Mediterranean island received a direct threat from Hezbollah amid the escalation with “Israel” since October 8, 2023.

Hezbollah steps up offensive actions, deploying more explosive drones, using new rockets, and claiming to target Israeli aircraft — a significant shift.

In recent developments, the South Lebanese Front has reemerged as a significant force amid intensifying military confrontations between Hezbollah and Israeli forces along the border.
