American sources told MTV that the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon is no longer in effect, stressing the need for a new agreement that includes the disarmament of Hezbollah. They added that what Israel had previously accepted will not be accepted today.

The sources also said that the United States will not intervene this time following what it described as Hezbollah’s violation of state decisions. Israeli strikes are expected to intensify and expand, and an Israeli ground incursion could take place.

They further indicated that, according to current assessments, the Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport and the Port of Beirut are not expected to be in the line of Israeli fire for the time being.

The sources also called on the Lebanese state to designate Hezbollah as a terrorist organization, warning that otherwise no separation would be made between the state and the group.
