Al-Mashat Warns Investment Companies in ‘Israel': Leave Before It's Too Late
The head of Yemen's Supreme Political Council, Mahdi al-Mashat, urged all companies investing in the Israeli occupation entity to 'take the Yemeni warning seriously,' urging them to 'leave quickly.' In statements to the Yemeni Saba News Agency on Sunday, al-Mashat warned that the environment in the Israeli occupation entity is 'unsafe' for these companies, stressing that they 'must bear the consequences of their insistence (on remaining) and be responsible for any losses they may incur.' A source in the Yemeni Ministry of Defense to Saba News Agency: – 'Foreign investors and companies operating within the Zionist entity must leave immediately; the environment will not remain safe, and it is best to do so while the opportunity still exists.' – 'Our missiles are… — The Cradle (@TheCradleMedia) June 1, 2025 This warning follows a statement from Yemen's Ministry of Defense on Saturday advising foreign investors to 'leave immediately' while 'the opportunity remains.' Al-Mashat cautioned that additional measures may be implemented in coming days, placing companies at 'real and significant risk.' He criticized Netanyahu's government for 'gambling with investor safety' and announced that Yemeni authorities would soon establish a departure deadline. The Yemeni leader also revealed that some companies have already begun relocating assets following earlier warnings. In a related development, Al-Mashat designated all Israeli military air and maritime routes as combat zones unsafe for civilian traffic. This declaration came after Israeli warplanes struck Sanaa International Airport, prompting him to warn Israeli settlers that 'bunkers will no longer be safe.' Al-Mashat stated that Yemen's armed forces can engage Israeli aircraft without disrupting international navigation. 'Our armed forces will be able to deal with the hostile Zionist aircraft without any harm to air and maritime navigation,' he said.

Normalization with Israel only possible with two-state-solution, says Lebanon PM
'I would like to see a two-state solution, Israel withdrawing from the occupied territories in exchange for peace, and that peace will lead to normalization,' said the PM. Nawaf Salam, Prime Minister of Lebanon and former President of the International Court of Justice , said in an interview with CNN in Dubai this week that his country's normalization of relations with Israel would only be possible through a two-state solution that includes the creation of a Palestinian state. 'I would like to see a two-state solution, Israel withdrawing from the occupied territories in exchange for peace, and that peace will lead to normalization . Normalization is part of the vision.' Salam also said during the interview that Israel's presence 'in parts of southern Lebanon is undermining Beirut's attempts to restore sovereignty,' and added that he would like the US to pressure Israel to withdraw from the five outposts that it established a few hundred meters from the border. 'Israeli presence in Lebanon is a red line for everyone. This is not a red line for Hezbollah alone,' he added in the interview. He previously did an interview with Sky News Arabia this week, and told the source that his government would not be cooperating closely with Iran, and said that Lebanon would only consider peace with Israel if it was 'real peace.' 'We are a peace-seeking nation, but we want a real peace. Israel is occupying territories that belong to our country,' he said. As ICJ president, Salam initially presided over South Africa's ongoing genocide case against Israel.

President Joseph Aoun arrived at Baghdad International Airport at 10 am on Sunday, where he was received by Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' Al Sudani, his office director Ihsan Al Awadi, the head of the Iraqi National Security Service Abdel Karim Al Basri, along with several senior Iraqi officials, the Lebanese ambassador to Iraq Ali Habhab, the chargé d'affaires Nada Majoul, and embassy staff. The President and the Iraqi Prime Minister proceeded to the platform where the Lebanese and Iraqi national anthems were played, followed by an honor guard review. President Aoun then greeted members of the Iraqi delegation, while Prime Minister Sudani greeted members of the Lebanese delegation. From the airport, President Aoun made the following statement: 'I am pleased to accept the invitation of my brother, His Excellency the President of the brotherly Republic of Iraq, Abdul Latif Rashid, whom I previously met in Cairo on the sidelines of the extraordinary Arab Summit held in the Egyptian capital. This visit is also an opportunity to meet with Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' Al Sudani, reflecting the depth of the historic brotherly relations that bind Lebanon and Iraq and embody our shared commitment to enhancing cooperation and coordination in various fields. This visit is an opportunity to thank the Iraqi leadership and the brotherly Iraqi people for their continuous support to Lebanon and for the valuable assistance they have provided to the Lebanese people, especially during the recent war witnessed by Lebanon. We also highly appreciate the shipments of Iraqi oil, which have provided vital support to Lebanon in its difficult circumstances, expressing the sincere spirit of Arab brotherhood and its noble meanings. I must also congratulate brotherly Iraq on its outstanding success in hosting the Arab Summit and the Arab Economic Development Summit, which marked an important milestone in the path of joint Arab work. This success reflects Iraq's ability to shoulder its leadership responsibilities in the region and its pivotal role in strengthening Arab solidarity. I am confident that the talks I will hold today will confirm the complete alignment of views between Lebanon and Iraq, especially regarding deepening coordination and cooperation in all security fields, particularly in combating terrorism and extremism, stemming from our shared belief that security and stability in our countries are interconnected, and that facing security challenges requires joint efforts and exchanging expertise and information. This visit affirms Lebanon's keenness to develop its relations with brotherly Iraq in various political, economic, cultural, and security fields, serving the interests of our two brotherly peoples and enhancing the stability and prosperity of the region.' From the airport, President Aoun headed to the Iraqi Presidential Palace to meet with President Rashid.
