Hezbollah said its international relations chief Ammar al-Moussawi discussed regional and local developments with Emmanuel Bonne, French President Francois Hollande's adviser for Middle East affairs.

A French embassy source said Bonne was in Lebanon for "talks with all political parties" and would be joined on Monday by the French army's chief of staff, Admiral Edouard Guillaud.
