⚡️🇮🇷🇱🇧🇺🇸🇮🇱 — Iran declared that the survival of any regional accord is strictly contingent upon "safeguarding Lebanon's national sovereignty" and territorial integrity, equating the termination of Israeli military operations in Lebanon with the end of the war against Iranian territory — Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Baqaei.

⚡️🇮🇱🇱🇧 — The IDF Chief of the General Staff approves plans for continued operations in the Security Zone, "in accordance with the ceasefire agreement":

“The agreement signed with the Lebanese government is historic and significant—the operational strength and military achievements the IDF has secured in recent months created the conditions that made it possible. We will honor the agreement and work to ensure its success. The test now is the actions of both sides, and the coming period will shape the future.

The Northern Command region is now the IDF’s main operational focus. We are prepared to rapidly resume offensive operations in both Lebanon and Iran if required.

The security of our troops is of the highest importance. Troops from the 36th Division and the Commando Brigade maintain operational control in the Beaufort Ridge area and are equipped with all the tools and capabilities needed to degrade the enemy. All IDF capabilities are here to continue supporting you in accomplishing the mission.”

⚡️🇮🇱🇱🇧🇮🇷🇺🇸 — The framework agreement signed over the weekend between Israel and Lebanon has sparked intense domestic polarization and critical "72-hour operational anxieties over potential targeted assassinations, widespread protests, and Hezbollah attacks", though sources estimate the situation will not escalate into full-scale civil war — political sources via N12

➡️ The leak emphasizes the accord is a direct "blow to Iran" that Tehran is actively trying to dismantle, though local politicians express cautious optimism regarding a security pilot where the Israeli military evacuates areas for Lebanese Army control contingent on "sustained US and Israeli patience."

➡️ Opponents state all commitments match the historical "Taif Agreement" to counter an active Iranian proxy network maintaining tens of thousands of personnel, a two-billion-dollar 2025 budget, and specialized assets including Revolutionary Guard officers and the Sunni-manned Lebanese Companies militia — sources via Israel Hayom

➡️ Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri of the allied Shiite Amal Movement expressed surprise via Al-Sharq Al-Awsat, labeling the text a "seed for civil war" while signaling his independent militia will not join hostilities, as Maronite Christian President Joseph Aoun uses constitutional authority to detach Lebanese border tracks from wider Tehran-Washington talks, warning that disarming factions too quickly will trigger internal collapse.

➡️ The 95,000-strong Lebanese Army faces internal skepticism under a one-billion-dollar budget due to a 40% Shiite composition and intelligence leaks to Hezbollah, prompting domestic calls to replace Commander Rudolf Heikal—currently visiting Britain—following operational disarmament failures south of the Litani River.

➡️ Rival Christian factions remain deeply fractured: Nadim Gemayel and the anti-Iran Lebanese Forces party celebrate the collapse of the Tehran narrative while leader Samir Ja'ja hints at armed counter-mobilization; conversely, Gibran Bassil of the pro-Hezbollah Free Patriotic Current warned of a "civil war trap", while sanctioned, pro-Tehran politician Suleiman Franjieh maintains total silence.

➡️ Gulf-backed Sunni leaders Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, derided in local protests as "Nawaf the Zionist," and lawmaker Fouad Makhzoumi are actively mobilizing a united legislative bloc to enforce an initiative banning illegal weapons across the Beirut district, maintaining that all clauses are covered by the historical Taif Agreement and the 2024 ceasefire.

➡️ Druze factional leader Walid Jumblatt broke with his own pro-disarmament public—polled by the Al-Jadeed channel following historic Israeli aid to Syrian Druze—to align with the Iranian axis and condemn the framework for its complete absence of a temporary ceasefire or "Hudna".

⚡️🇮🇱🇱🇧🇺🇸 — Israel and Lebanon have signed a U.S.-backed trilateral framework agreement that commits to the verified disarmament of Hezbollah and the progressive redeployment of Israeli forces, with the Lebanese Army assuming full security responsibility in agreed "pilot zones," according to the full text released by the State Department and published by Haaretz.

➡️ Two initial pilot zones in southern Lebanon have been agreed upon where the LAF will assume "full and effective security responsibility," enabling the return of displaced residents, internationally supported reconstruction, and the creation of future zones. Israeli forces will withdraw from areas only after the Lebanese military verifiably disarms non-state armed groups and dismantles their infrastructure.

➡️ Israel declared it "has no territorial ambitions in Lebanon" and that the elimination of the Hezbollah threat "will eliminate any future need for IDF military action or presence." Both countries affirmed the right to self-defense and will establish a military coordination group with U.S. participation to ensure implementation.

➡️ Lebanon reaffirmed its "irreversible commitment" to restoring full sovereignty, the state's monopoly on force, and the complete disarmament of all non-state armed groups. It also committed to preventing reconstruction funds from flowing to Hezbollah or connected entities. Any new U.S. assistance will be strictly conditioned on verifiable milestones.

➡️ The agreement declares the intent to "conclusively end the conflict" and formally conclude any state of war between the two countries. Both governments will immediately establish working groups to draft a full comprehensive peace and security agreement, with the U.S. rallying international partners for Lebanon's reconstruction.

🇮🇱🇺🇸🇱🇧🇱🇧 — Joint statement by PM Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz:

As part of Operation "End of Sentence," the IDF has just destroyed the underground terror infrastructure of the Hezbollah terror organization in the Majdal Zun village area in southern Lebanon.

The route, over 200 meters long and more than 25 meters deep, contained hundreds of weapons and several launch shafts intended to target the territory of the State of Israel and its citizens.

Israel informed the US and the American representative in Lebanon in advance about the destruction of the infrastructure.

IDF commanders and soldiers will remain in the security zone in southern Lebanon and will continue to destroy terror infrastructures, remove threats from northern communities, and maintain the security of Israeli citizens.
