Following the latest round of violence, the death toll has surpassed 3,000. More than one million people have been displaced since the fighting began on March 2. Israel has been putting pressure on the Lebanese government to disarm the military group, claiming that Hezbollah remains an existential threat to its security. In this special edition of The Newsmakers, Lebanese Minister of Culture Ghassan Salame discusses the path toward Hezbollah’s disarmament and the challenges Lebanon faces in the wake of the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah war.
