Prime Minister Nawaf Salam condemned the attacks as 'a grave breach of our sovereignty and the ceasefire agreement concluded last November,' warning they also jeopardize Lebanon's fragile stability.
أُدين بشدة الاعتداءات الإسرائيلية في محيط النبطية، التي تمثّل خرقًا فاضحًا للسيادة الوطنية ولترتيبات وقف الأعمال العدائية التي تم التوصل إليها في تشرين الثاني الماضي، كما تشكّل تهديدًا للاستقرار الذي نحرص على صونه.

Despite the truce, Israeli air and artillery strikes have continued across Lebanon's south and east, with Lebanese authorities documenting over 3,000 ceasefire violations and reporting Israeli forces still stationed at five border positions.

Katz orders military to draft new strategy on Iran
On Friday, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz unveiled a new enforcement doctrine aimed at sustaining military pressure on Iran, warning that The Rising Lion marked the beginning of a permanent policy shift in Israeli defense strategy. In a televised statement, Katz noted that he had instructed the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to implement a plan focused on three pillars: preserving Israeli air superiority, preventing further development of Iran's nuclear and missile programs, and responding decisively to Tehran's support for militant groups hostile to Israel. 'We will act continuously to neutralize threats of this kind,' the minister stated, adding that after October 7 (the beginning of the Gaza war), immunity has ended. Meanwhile, Israeli Channel 12 reported that newly obtained satellite images show Iran resuming activity at the Natanz nuclear facility. According to the report, recent movements and visible work at the site suggest that Iranian authorities have begun efforts to extract enriched uranium stored in underground sections of the complex. This development comes amid ongoing assessments of the impact of US-led airstrikes on Iran's nuclear infrastructure. A recent US intelligence review found that the damage inflicted may set Iran back only by a few months, rather than disabling its program permanently.

Putin: Trump truly seeks to end the Ukraine conflict
Shafaq News – Minsk Russian President Vladimir Putin said his country plans to reduce military spending in the future, contrasting its approach with what he described as increasing militarization in the West. Speaking during a visit to Minsk, the Belarusian capital, Putin criticized NATO's recent decision to boost defense budgets, calling it an aggressive move based on what he claimed was a false narrative of Russian hostility. 'This alleged Russian aggression does not exist,' he said. Putin also signaled Moscow's willingness to return to the negotiating table with Ukraine, expressing openness to a third round of talks and proposing a review of two earlier memoranda between the two countries. 'We are working to narrow the gaps between our positions and Kyiv's,' he stated. The Russian president described former US President Donald Trump as 'genuine' in his efforts to end the war in Ukraine. Putin further noted that Russia is prepared to hand over another 3,000 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers, reaffirming that communication between Moscow and Kyiv continues following recent prisoner exchange operations.

Drones spark alarm over southern Iraq military sites
Shafaq News – Dhi Qar An unidentified surveillance drone was spotted flying above key security and military facilities in Iraq's Dhi Qar province for several consecutive nights, a senior security source told Shafaq News on Friday. The source explained that the drones were visible to the naked eye over Imam Ali Air Base and Nasiriyah Central Prison (al-Hoot). The aircraft also filmed the prison and other sites including filming one of Iraq's most secure prisons, which holds dozens of convicted terrorists and high-risk criminals, prompting fears that the facility—or nearby military institutions—could be targeted in a future attack intended to destabilize the southern provinces. The source also pointed to a recent drone strike on the Imam Ali Air Base's US-operated radar system, saying the surprise attack had left the region vulnerable. Despite security units detecting the repeated aerial surveillance, no countermeasures have yet been taken, he said, calling on the federal government to intervene urgently and halt violations of Iraqi airspace.
