Lebanon and Palestinian authorities are jointly pushing for the disarmament of Palestinian refugee camps, aiming to weaken Hezbollah and other militant groups. This initiative, supported by Mahmoud Abbas, faces resistance from some factions, including Hamas, who demand civil rights for Palestinians in exchange for disarmament. The move is seen by some as a tactic to pressure Hezbollah, while others view it as a distraction from addressing Hezbollah's own arsenal. Despite the challenges, a joint committee is working to implement disarmament, starting this summer, although concrete plans remain unclear.
