  • The Biden administration is reallocating over $100 million in military assistance from Israel and Egypt to Lebanon.
  • This funding aims to strengthen the Lebanese Armed Forces and uphold the ceasefire with Hezbollah, established in November.
  • Approximately $95 million is designated for Egypt and $7.5 million for Israel, now redirected to Lebanon's military.
  • The aid supports the deployment of the Lebanese army in the south, in conjunction with U.N. peacekeeping forces.
  • The State Department asserts this assistance solidifies the LAF as a key counterweight to Hezbollah's influence in the region.
