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.

As Gaza assault widens, criticism mounts in Israel over stalled deal
Report by Amal Shehadeh, English adaptation by Karine Keuchkerian Israel responded to Hamas' demand to amend the "Witkoff proposal"—specifically the call for a ceasefire in Gaza—by doubling down on its military campaign and expanding the ongoing Operation "Gideon's Chariots." In a closed security meeting, Israel decided to increase military pressure, particularly in the northern Gaza Strip, following intelligence reports indicating that Hamas' Gaza Brigade commander, Ezz al-Din al-Haddad, may be present in the area. As families of Israeli hostages and critics of the government blamed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for obstructing a potential deal, sources familiar with the negotiations said the United States is continuing efforts to draft a new proposal acceptable to both sides. However, ministers in Israel's ruling coalition have rejected any new or previous proposals. Meanwhile, as the Israeli military continues its large-scale mobilization—reaching 450,000 reservists—an Israeli report said the army has established a one-kilometer-wide buffer zone along the length of the Gaza Strip. Civilians are now barred from entering areas up to three kilometers from this zone. The army has announced control over 80% of the Gaza Strip, where homes, factories, and farmland have been systematically destroyed. Even fishermen have been prohibited from returning to work.
