IDF Spokesperson:

Yesterday (Sunday), two IDF soldiers from the 98th Division were moderately injured as a result of a blast impact from an anti-tank missile fired at them in southern Lebanon.

The soldiers were evacuated to a hospital for medical treatment, and their families have been notified.

A Hezbollah tunnel in southern Lebanon before it was destroyed by our forces.

The “aid” that entered the Gaza Strip today:

• A truck full of gummy candies
• An entire truck with Nutella chocolate
• Plenty of Coca-Cola cans

“We’ve had enough” — Lapid lashes out at Bennett, Eisenkot, and Golan, saying they “abandoned the fight.”

The government will approve extending the state of emergency on the home front until the end of the month, citing among the reasons “the uncertainty regarding a ceasefire in Iran.”

The commander of Division 98 in a briefing to military reporters:

Our fighters are expected to complete within days the capture of Hezbollah’s stronghold in Bint Jbeil.

So far, at least about 100 terrorists have been eliminated there, with only a few dozen remaining.

Not much remains of the football field in Bint Jbeil, 26 years after Nasrallah delivered his “spider web” speech there.

The Knesset’s legal advisors demonstratively walked out of the Communications Committee after Chair Distel Atbaryan sharply attacked them.

From the negotiations:

The Americans agreed to release a certain portion of the frozen funds and to end the war.

In return, they demanded a 20‑year freeze on enrichment, the removal of enriched material from Iran, and free navigation in Hormuz without tax payments.

The Iranians discussed the nuclear issue contrary to instructions from Tehran, but the gaps were enormous.

Manhunt for a Hezbollah drone; sirens sounded in the Krayot area.

Netanyahu to MK Fogel in the government:
I’m the one who gives instructions on when and how to make statements. You need to consult with me before speaking.

Netanyahu in the government:

• I spoke yesterday with Vice President Vance, who called me from his plane on the way back from Pakistan, and detailed the developments in the negotiations — in this case, the collapse of the talks.

• The collapse came from the American side, which could not tolerate the blatant violation of the agreement. The understanding was to stop the fire, and the Iranians would immediately open the straits. They did not do that.

• Vance also made it clear to me that the main issue from Trump’s perspective is the removal of all enriched material and ensuring that there will be no more enrichment in the coming years — possibly for decades — no enrichment inside Iran.

• We support Trump’s firm position to impose a naval blockade on the Iranians.

Netanyahu in the government: The ceasefire is like a coin — it can flip very quickly.

Trump has blockaded the Strait of Hormuz, but with talks still ongoing, the move is clearly a negotiation tactic. The real question is: why is Trump even trying to negotiate with a party he claims has “never lost a negotiation”?

Also, new energy opportunities, Orbán's ironic defeat, and more.

The clock is ticking: two and a half hours until the start of the naval blockade on Iran.
