Sunnis want Hezbullies to apologize for using arms against the Lebanese | |

The move coincided with a call by Mustaqbal Movement leader Saad Hariri to his partisans to return to their apartments and businesses that they deserted since a Hezbollah assault on West Beirut on May 8. However, a security source said no such return has been observed. A senior security source told Naharnet that displaced families are apparently waiting for the new cabinet to be formed and for the security plan to be applied prior to returning to their homes. "They are adopting a wait and see attitude. They want to make sure the security plan is being effectively applied. The more confident they are, the more they would start returning to their homes and businesses," said the source who asked not to be identified. Meanwhile, the Higher Sharia Islamic Council, in a statement, asked Hezbollah to apologize for having used weapons against Lebanese citizens. The apology, as outlined by the highest Sunni spiritual authority, is the necessary condition set by the community for accepting a national reconciliation in line with the Doha Accord. | |
