Israel considers Lebanese officer as Hezbollah plant

(AhlulBayt News Agency) - The Zionist entity called on the United Nations peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon to remove a top officer in the Lebanese army from a command post on the ‘Israeli'-occupied Palestinian northern border, claiming he is a Hezbollah operative.

The Tel Aviv apartheid government asked the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon [UNIFIL] to ensure that Major Yahya Husseini, who serves as a "liaison officer" for Hezbollah, be removed immediately from his position, the report claimed.

According to ‘Israeli' allegations, Hezbollah "planted" Husseini into the Lebanese army as part of its goal to increase its influence within the army.

‘Israel' further considered that Husseini maintains continuous contact with Hezbollah operatives, gets instructions from them, and hands over information to the resistance movement.

The request to UNIFIL came as the UN on Wednesday extended the mandate of the UN peacekeeping mission, which expired Thursday.
