The Higher Defense Council convened on Thursday chaired by President Michel Aoun to discuss the country’s security situation and the general mobilization.
The Council then issued the following decisions:

- Extending the general mobilization for three months from 1/1/2021 until 31/3/2021, in addition to allocating the necessary funds for the Coronavirus vaccines.

- Asking the military and security apparatuses to be fully prepared to keep up with the end-of-year festive period, as well as asking the Ministry of Public Works to complete all cleaning of sewers and canals on all roads, as well as asking the Ministry of Interior to instruct the municipalities to carry out the necessary cleaning and maintenance of canals within cities and towns.

- Extending the army’s mandate to follow up on the implementation of some tasks within the Beirut Port area following the Beirut port explosion. It was also decided to assign the Ministry of Finance to seek to secure 150 billion LBP to distribute restoration aid to those affected by the Beirut Port explosion.
