MP Fouad Makhzoumi raised questions about Hezbollah's announcement of allocating large sums to shelter affected families, saying they are handled outside official financial frameworks, and demanded that the government, Banque du Liban, the Special Investigation Commission and judicial and security authorities immediately verify the sources and channels of these funds. In later statements he stressed that his objection does not target the residents of the South, the Bekaa and the southern suburbs nor humanitarian aid, but rather financial systems operating outside state oversight and the law.
MTV Lebanon focused on the details of Makhzoumi's X post and his demands to the government, Banque du Liban and the Special Investigation Commission; Voice of Beirut International limited itself to the sovereignty angle and the monopoly of weapons and control over money movement; and Lebanon Debate highlighted Makhzoumi's clarification that his objection targets neither the affected people nor aid to them, while stressing transparency and money-laundering risks.
