Comprising the army, navy, and air force, they operate under civilian government oversight. The LAF aims to uphold stability in a complex political landscape marked by diverse religious and sectarian groups, working towards national unity and security. Despite challenges from regional tensions and internal conflicts, the forces are committed to protecting Lebanon's sovereignty and ensuring peace within its borders.
