Lebanese Cabinet receives military’s weapons plan

BEIRUT: The Lebanese Cabinet on Friday received the Lebanese Armed Forces’ plan to restrict the possession of weapons to state personnel on Friday. While the Cabinet “took note” of the plan, four ministers from Hezbollah and its ally, the Amal Movement, along with a neutral Shiite minister, walked out at the start of the session in protest over the plan. Since disarmament talks began earlier this year, Hezbollah has firmly rejected handing over its weapons.
