Israel army says striking Hezbollah in south Lebanon

The Israeli military launched strikes against Hezbollah targets across southern Lebanon on Thursday, issuing evacuation warnings for eight villages in the south and east ahead of the operations, hours before U.S.-brokered ceasefire talks between Lebanon and Israel were scheduled to begin in Washington. Lebanon's National News Agency reported airstrikes in areas beyond those warned, while the Lebanese Health Ministry reported 22 killed in raids the previous day; Israeli strikes have killed over 400 people during the current ceasefire period, according to an AFP tally of health ministry figures.

Trump vows complete victory over Iran , says ceasefire on life support

U.S. President Donald Trump declared the Middle East ceasefire "on life support" Monday after rejecting Iran's counteroffer, which demanded release of frozen assets, an end to the U.S. naval blockade, and a halt to Israeli strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon. Trump vowed "complete victory" over Iran while Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu insisted the conflict would continue until Iran's nuclear facilities were dismantled, as Iranian officials warned that "restraint is over" and threatened retaliation against American vessels.

President Donald Trump said the ceasefire between the United States and Iran is "on life support" on Sunday, dismissing Tehran's response to a US peace proposal as "stupid" and "a piece of garbage." Iran's response, released the same day, demanded an end to the war on all fronts including Lebanon, compensation for war damage, lifting of US sanctions and the naval blockade, and security guarantees; Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei defended the proposal as reflecting "legitimate rights," while Trump threatened a return to conflict without Iranian concessions he characterized as necessary.
