U.S. Reportedly Withholding $105 Million In Aid For Lebanon

The US decided to withhold security aid to Lebanon following the resignation of Prime Minister Saad Hariri, amid concerns about Hezbollah's influence and potential Russian involvement. Hariri's resignation came after protests sparked by a proposed WhatsApp tax, which evolved into demands for government reform due to Lebanon's economic crisis. Despite efforts, Hariri failed to secure $11 billion in aid pledged by foreign donors. Protesters are now calling for new elections, but the timeline remains uncertain.
