Oppose No evidence that Lebanese and Syrian forces have directly clashed with each other.

Additionally, according to this source:

"Lebanese President Joseph Aoun on Friday announced an agreement with his Syrian counterpart, Ahmed al-Sharaa, to coordinate efforts in securing the borders between the two countries...

The statement added that the two presidents agreed to "coordinate efforts to secure the Lebanese-Syrian borders and prevent attacks on civilians."^[1]

I believe the key factor is that the clashes occurred along the border, rather than whether government forces were involved. For example, in the "2012–2017 Lebanon–Syria border clashes", one side of the belligerents was not a state actor.

Well I think that its more appropriate to shift that page title to "Lebanon-Syrian opposition clashes (2012–2017)".

The wiki page about the clashes between the State of Israel and Hezbollah militant group between October 2023 and September 2024 is titled "Israel–Hezbollah conflict (2023–2024)"; and not as "Israel-Lebanon conflict (2023–2024)".

Furthermore, it's clear that the Lebanese army is deployed in the border to crack down on Hezbollah militants engaged in attacks and smuggling activities at the Lebanese-Syria border:

"... the Lebanese army has deployed reinforcements and warned Hezbollah-linked militants to withdraw from border areas. ...

The escalation prompted a phone call between Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, during which both leaders emphasized the need for coordination to de-escalate tensions."^[2]
