   • 2016 October 22, Rami G Khouri, “Lebanese oligarchy preserves its interests once again”, in Al Jazeera‎^[1]:

     The Hariri-Aoun agreement has shown that Hezbollah can bring the national political system to a halt. This happened in the past several years, and it worsened conditions in sectors such as foreign debt, electricity output, rubbish collection, water delivery, and other essential services, to the discomfort of the majority of Lebanese who have spoken out intermittently against the oligarchy of sectarian leaders who rule the country.

   • 2024 September 25, Irene Nasser, Dana Karni, Helen Regan and Sophie Tanno, “Israel intercepts Hezbollah ballistic missile near Tel Aviv in first such attack”, in CNN‎^[2]:

     Israel intercepted a missile fired by Hezbollah near Tel Aviv on Wednesday, an unprecedented attack by the militant group that reached deep into the country’s commercial heartlands and marked a new escalatory step in the conflict between the two sides.
