The Lebanese Army and UNIFIL were, are, and will be under Hezbollah control in southern Lebanon. This photo was taken on January 27 in the village of Kfar Kela during the organized arrival of the Lebanese to southern Lebanon, with Hezbollah initiative, in order to enter villages and areas that are prohibited from entry and to intentionally create friction with IDF forces. The symbolism in the photo is the actual reality in southern Lebanon. Hezbollah flags were raised both on the UNIFIL armored vehicle and next to a Lebanese army jeep. The Lebanese Army and UNIFIL cannot and do not want to confront Hezbollah and its actions. That is how it was and how it will be.
