# What the UN Secretary-General left out: The Times of Israel says Hezbollah refused to disarm after the June deal

*The UN Secretary-General's spokespersons said today's noon briefing would include updates on the situation in Lebanon, the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Yemen and more. The Times of Israel says Hezbollah has refused to disarm under the June agreement that called for an Israeli withdrawal in parallel with the Lebanese army.*

The Spokespersons of the [UN Secretary-General](https://x.com/UN_Spokesperson/status/2120905267277922388) said at today's noon briefing there would be "updates on the situation in Lebanon, the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Yemen and more." [The Times of Israel](https://www.timesofisrael.com/hezbollah-leader-trump-and-netanyahu-were-defeated-in-elections-a-positive-development-for-us/) reported that Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem said, "The one confronting Iran, Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen… has lost."

The UN Spokesperson listed a situation in Lebanon as a briefing item. The Times of Israel reported that Hezbollah pulled Lebanon into the war with Iran on March 2, prompting massive Israeli airstrikes and a subsequent ground invasion of southern Lebanon before an agreement to end the conflict was reached in June. The Times of Israel reported that sporadic fighting has continued.

The UN Spokesperson listed a situation in Yemen as a briefing item. The Times of Israel quoted Qassem placing Yemen with Iran, Lebanon, and Palestine as arenas he said the United States president had been confronting.

According to The Times of Israel, negotiations have been hampered by Hezbollah's refusal to comply with the deal. The Times of Israel reported that the deal calls for the IDF to withdraw from areas of southern Lebanon it held in parallel with the deployment of the Lebanese army, under the condition that Hezbollah disarms. The Times of Israel reported that the Iran-backed terror group has refused to do so. The Times of Israel reported that Qassem reiterated that Hezbollah will not give up its weapons.
