I'm John Batchel with Bill Rasio and David D.

Bill, you have a question for David. David, there's a report

that Hezbo fired upon a Lebanese or an Israeli military convoy in southern Lebanon. Has the,

have the Israelis responded to this attack? And what does this mean for the ceasefire?

They have. And I think this is within the kind of the permitted ambit of Israeli action, the imminent, ongoing, planned.

The ceasefire is, look, the ceasefire is going to hold for as long as President

Trump says it's going to hold if we're going to be blunt. Israeli soldiers may get hurt. Hezbollah

may do what Hezbollah does. And I think so long as the president says, this is what goes,

then, you know, that ceasefire will hold and the Israelis will operate within the

boundaries that President Trump sets for them.

Therefore, what we have here is a moment to rearm, reorganize, and move our pieces around

without threat of the IDF or IAF interfering.

Is that ongoing? Do we have information about re-arming or reorganizing? Well, it's still too soon to say yet, but I imagine, you know,

look, if we're going by Hussbalist statements from before the ceasefire went to effect.

They said several things.

First, obviously that they would continue fighting.

Second, now the fighting is stopped, this is where it becomes relevant to it.

They would never surrender their arsenal and that they would force,

this being Hezbollah, that they would force the Lebanese government to rescind all the decisions that they have taken against the resistance and its weapons.

And even though these decisions remain in the realm of the symbolic, the symbolic is still important in the sense that Hezbollah's weapons are now technically illegal in Lebanon, even though Lebanon hasn't done anything about it in a practical sense.

They're not arresting Hezbollah fighters.

They're not, you know, confiscating their arsenal, to my knowledge, not yet.
