Israel Redraws the Roadmap for Peace with Lebanon. ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ ๐ฑ๐ง
Negotiations between Israel and Lebanon began at the U.S. State Department, with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio serving as mediator.
Lebanon seeks an immediate ceasefire and to address the humanitarian crisis, while Israel focuses the talks on the disarmament of Hezbollah and moving toward peaceful relations (normalization), without accepting a prior ceasefire with the group.
To this end, Israel has proposed a peace plan that will consist of establishing three zones in Lebanon.
A: An 8-km buffer zone (Pink) within Lebanese territory involving the destruction and demolition of civilian infrastructure (which is being carried out nowadays) and Hezbollah strongholds. This buffer zone will extend from the coast to the summit of Mount Hermon, in line with the new buffer zone created in Syrian territory. This zone will be permanently occupied, with no guarantees of civilian return, in order to โprotect Israeli settlements in the north.โ

B: Area south of Litani (Yellow): Area of Israeli operations to dismantle Hezbollah, with a temporary occupation until โthe end of operationsโ
C: The rest of Lebanon. The Lebanese Armed Forces will be responsible for dismantling Hezbollahโs remaining positions (north of the Litani River, in the Bekaa Valley, along the eastern border, and south of Beirut) with the support of Israel and the United States.
Israel has declared that there will be no full withdrawal until Hezbollah is eliminated, setting a precedent for indefinitely occupying the area south of the Litani River, which Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Yoel Smotrich had previously referred to as part of the territory of Greater Israel.

On the other hand, the Lebanese government faces the challenge of dismantling a cross-sectarian movement like Hezbollah, which has managed to consolidate its presence across much of Lebanese territory and gain significant support among the population, effectively creating a state within a state. The failure of the government and the armed forces to assert control over Hezbollah could spark a Lebanese civil conflict by reigniting tensions with the Shia community and divisions within the armed forces. It is then that Lebanon could become a battleground for dispute and external intervention, with Syria (which continues to reinforce the border and amass troops) serving as the instrument used to subdue the last remaining groups of the resistance axis in Lebanon, with the approval of Tel Aviv and Washington.

The spread of the conflict to the rest of Lebanon would trigger a new social and demographic catastrophe, affecting not only Lebanonโs diverse society but also the various refugee groups that have been hosted on its territory for decades.

Statement issued by the Islamic Resistance Front in Syria, the first of the brave
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
โAnd do not incline toward the wrongdoers, lest the Fire touch you, and you would have no protector other than Allah. Then you would have none...โ
You will emerge victorious.
The recent warnings by Syrian Governor Hakan Fidan regarding Israelโs growing ambitions in Syria clearly reveal that our country has become the โeye of the stormโ and that the Zionist enemy is seeking a โnew victimโ to expand its influence and perpetrate its crimes.
These official statements from a major regional power confirm that the danger is no longer merely a possibility, but a reality that imposes itself upon everyone and places us before a historic responsibility.

In light of this reality, we announce the following to the public:
First: A message to the de facto authority in Damascus:
Regional powers have grasped the magnitude of the imminent danger; when will you? Protecting Syria from Israeli aggression will not be achieved by submitting to foreign powers or seeking humiliating normalization agreements to consolidate your power. Protecting the territory requires supporting the fighters of the free resistance, not imprisoning them, persecuting them, or forcibly making them disappear. The ongoing persecution by your security apparatus of every patriotic voice calling for resistance is a free service to the enemy. The force that the occupation fears is the resistance that springs from the will of the people, not chained armies.
Through secret agreements.
Second: Resistance is the solution, not normalization.
We affirm that any attempt to normalize relations with the occupation or its collaborating powers under the pretext of protecting the state is a flagrant betrayal of the Syrian peopleโs blood.
History has shown that the enemy can only be defeated through steadfastness and confrontation.
The authorities in Damascus must choose: either to stand firm alongside their people and the resistance fighters in a united struggle against Zionist ambitions, or to remain a burden on Syriaโs sovereignty and a cause for the loss of what remains of it.
Third: A call to the free people of Syria:
Your conscience is an insurmountable barrier, so do not allow those who ruined the country to exploit the land issue once again. Defending Syria begins with rejecting tyranny and joining the ranks of the resistance.
Fourth: A warning:
Let it be clear that we are working quietly to ensure our response is precise, effective, and decisive against the enemyโfar from mere empty gestures. The delay in our operations is not due to inactivity, but to the calm before the storm, which allows us to regroup and ensure that every shot is accurate. We prioritize the protection of our civilian population above all else, and our actions are selective and decisive, with a single objective: to liberate our land and protect our honor.
And Allah has absolute control over His affairs.

Situation on Krasnopillia front: Russian army continues to expand the buffer zone in Sumy.
During the first half of April, Russian forces managed to establish a foothold in the first houses of Myropillya, which is in a difficult defensive position for Ukrainian army as it has its back to the Psel River; as a result, it may well fall by the end of the month. Furthermore, over the last ten days, Russian troops have managed to infiltrate and drive Ukrainian forces out of most of Velykyi Forest, from where they have entered the first houses of Novodmytrivka. Moreover, Russians have continued to take up positions north of Myropilske and have advanced west of Marine, taking control of the forested area of Prokhody.
