We are aware of reports that Hizballah continues to amass an arsenal of weapons in direct contravention of UN Security Council Resolution 1559. Hizballah’s arsenal has been increasing since the 2006 war with Israel and we remain concerned about Hizballah's involvement in the Syria conflict where they have provided essential support to the Syrian Armed forces.
