⚡️🇮🇷🇺🇸 — Iranian Speaker MB Ghalibaf responded to US officials' claim that $12 billion in unfrozen Iranian assets would fund US agricultural purchases:

"America falsely claims our unfrozen assets will buy their agriculture. Interesting. The only crop we're harvesting is what you planted: decades of mistrust. It's organic, abundant, and homegrown. But apparently the US only exports GMO soybeans, broken promises and trash talks."

⚡️🇮🇱🇺🇸🇱🇧 — US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed Israel and Lebanon are reaching agreements on "pilot zones for disarming Hezbollah" despite highly tense negotiations in Washington, with the current fifth round of talks expected to conclude with declarations of intent — Ynet / Al-Jadeed & cross-reports

➡️ Under the framework, the IDF will maintain a total ceasefire while withdrawing from cleared sectors as the Lebanese army takes its place, though structural dispute remains over an Israeli proposal for Lebanese forces to search areas north of the Litani River under US supervision.

➡️ While Lebanon seeks to implement the ceasefire, Israel views the talks as an opportunity to turn its temporary presence into a "long-term arrangement" according to Al-Akhbar, prompting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to convince US President Donald Trump to bypass total withdrawal demands due to upcoming domestic elections.

➡️ Both sides expressed anger over a Lebanon clause inserted by the US into a separate Washington-Tehran memorandum of understanding and a Swiss-negotiated "Friction Prevention Cell", which will be discussed during an upcoming visit by CENTCOM Commander Brad Cooper to discuss coordination with Israeli Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir.

➡️ Separately, the Lebanese military delegation refused to be photographed with Israeli representatives, with a military source via Al-Jadeed clarifying the decision reflected strict adherence to professional discipline during a sensitive national mission.

⚡️🇮🇷🇺🇸 — Iran is advancing a maritime proposal to generate 40 billion dollars annually by charging for "security, safety and environmental protection services" in the Strait of Hormuz, using Turkey's gold franc model in the Dardanelles as a strategic template — The Wall Street Journal

➡️ Tehran is presenting the revenue-sharing initiative to Gulf neighbors, Egypt, and China to justify tracking military equipment, claiming the United States previously utilized the strategic bottleneck to transport weapon supplies for hostile strikes against Iranian territory.

➡️ The targeted Turkish taxation model collects 6.70 dollars per ton for lighthouses and sanitation, a mechanism historically used to restrict warships during conflicts, though unilateral Iranian duplication faces absolute legal barriers requiring consensus from all 176 member states of the International Maritime Organization.

➡️ Concurrently, Middle Eastern and European officials note that regional actors are evaluating the multi-nation Strait of Malacca Patrol Force model between Malaysia, Indonesia, and Singapore to potentially merge Gulf naval assets with Iranian forces for coordinated joint air and sea surveillance.
