Reporter: Does the U.S. want Israel to withdraw forces from southern Lebanon?

JD Vance: The Israelis have been very clear that they don't have territorial intentions in southern Lebanon.

The reason they feel they have to be there is because they are worried about Hezbollah fighters in southern Lebanon.

We believe we can get to a place where both Lebanon's territorial integrity and Israel's security are protected.

JD Vance on Lebanon:

Over the past 24 hours, it's probably been the most peaceful the situation in Lebanon has been.

The previous 24 hours were pretty good. Obviously, there was some shooting 72 hours ago.

This is a work in progress.

It's almost 12 am. Go sleep bro

The ceasefire held for almost 48 hours because you didn't attack or advance.

It'll hold as long as you don't attack or advance.

And you will withdraw...with your heads down in shame

❗️Israeli occupation forces opened fire on a number of residents on the outskirts of Haddatha who were heading to the town's cemetery to complete a burial, escorted by the Lebanese army.

Three Merkava tanks and a D9 bulldozer were also observed positioned near the Haddatha cemetery

They entered the town during the ceasefire

❗️A martyr and two wounded after Israeli forces opened fire on civilians in Nabatieh al-Fawqa

They were working on clearing rubble and retrieving martyrs

North of your damn area you bastards

I hope Hezbullah responds and burns your soldier

Btw to all lying media, this incident is different than the one in Nabatieh

The attack on Nabatieh was against civilians and Hezbullah's statement is about those only

Hezbillah did not talk about the murder of those in Ali al-Taher area

بيان صادر عن المقاومة الإسلاميّة: statement

At 11:30 AM, the Israeli enemy army opened fire with machine guns from among the houses towards a group of civilians in the Deir neighborhood of Nabatieh.

These civilians were working to clear roads and recover the bodies of martyrs from under the rubble.

This treacherous attack by the enemy army resulted in the martyrdom of two civilians, one of whom was a municipal employee, and wounded others.

The Islamic Resistance warns that the enemy's actions constitute a blatant violation of the ceasefire to which the Resistance has adhered thus far

At least 3 Lebanese were killed today that didn't have to

I hope Israeli suffer for their continuous murders and be damned

It's two different incidents you craphead

The new civilians murdered in Nabatieh

They were in the presence of the Lebanese army and municipality to remove rubble and recover the bodies of the dead

The Lebanese delegation has arrived at the venue of the Lebanese-Israeli negotiations in Washington

This happens on the day Israel kills Lebanese civilians and violates the ceasefire and attacks Hezbullah fighters north of the yellow zone

The traitors don't even want to exert leverage and say we delay today's session

This morning the Iranians called the Lebanese and the U.S did too

The U.S and Israel are trying again to separate Iran from Hezbullah in this deal and they will fail to do so unless Iran shows weakness.

❗️A drone strike targeted a parked vehicle on the outskirts of Braachit toward Beit Yahoun in southern Lebanon

This was the attack on the civilians.

Media was there and will release evidence

How the f does unarmed people pose a threat to your coward soldiers, may you be dammned

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 In the past 48 hours, at least three very worrying claims were made by the Americans:

Claim 1: Iran’s initial $6 Billion in released funds will only be used for buying U.S. agricultural products.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, rejected this and said Iran’s Central Bank would use the funds ‘however it wants’.

Claim 2: Iran has agreed to accept the return of IAEA inspectors.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Ismael Baqaei, also rejected this and said that inspectors won’t return to Iran unless there is a final agreement.

Claim 3: Iran has agree to hold negotiations on its missile program.

Denied by Fars News and Tasnim News Agency, but not by any official outlet or spokesman.

What does this all mean?

While we certainly shouldn’t take all of America’s claims at face-value, it has also become increasingly difficult to trust the words of the Iranian negotiators themselves.

With many people already being opposed to the MoU, the very least the officials should do is quickly dismantle and disprove such claims from the enemy. In fact, rejecting the claims is not enough—practical actions must be taken to ensure that no such false statements are repeated.

If measures are not taken, how will anyone know what to believe? We’ve experienced many times that Iran rejected making a concession, only to later admit that they DID make that concession, just in a slightly different wording or with different technical details.

It is of the utmost importance that this MoU is implemented completely, with no comprimises, and with zero further concessions. The only way to guarantee this is not even allowing room for false claims—the very idea of it should be dismantled the moment it leaves the room.

Whatever needs to happen, must happen. Whether that’s suspending negotiations, closing the Strait of Hormuz (for real this time), or using military threats as leverage. There is no other way to compel the U.S. not to engage in false narrative-making.

Former Israeli PM Naftali Bennett:

For the first time since the establishment of Israel, the brand "Israel" is a net negative in the United States.

That's a disaster. It's a disaster!

Former Israeli PM Naftali Bennett:

Israel is not a client state or a vassal state.

Israel must, right now in Lebanon, exercise its right and duty to defend itself.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar:

They say Israel is breaching Lebanon's sovereignty. This is not true.

Hezbollah and Iran are breaching Lebanon's sovereignty.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar:

Lebanon is under Iranian occupation.

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar:

After Kaja Kallas said Israel is an apartheid state, I privately asked her to do something about it.

She didn't respond.

Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli:

Zohran Mamdani turned the municipality of New York City into a mosque.

We saw it.
