Pakistan: Saudi Arabia a Neutral and Suitable Venue for Dialogue with India - Jordan News
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has revealed the possibility of Saudi Arabia hosting direct negotiations between Pakistan and India to address longstanding contentious issues, including Kashmir, water disputes, trade, and counter-terrorism. اضافة اعلان In a closed-door meeting with several journalists at the Prime Minister's Office on Thursday, Sharif stated that the Kingdom could serve as a "neutral and suitable venue" for such a dialogue. He ruled out China playing this mediating role, noting that tensions between Islamabad and New Delhi have started to ease following military-level communications between the two countries. Sharif emphasized Pakistan's insistence on addressing all key issues as a comprehensive package, not in isolation. He also noted that if talks proceed, Pakistan's delegation would likely be headed by the National Security Advisor. Recent Tensions and Diplomatic Efforts Relations between the two nuclear-armed nations had deteriorated sharply following a deadly attack in Kashmir that left 26 people dead, with India blaming Pakistan for the incident—a charge Islamabad denied. The region narrowly avoided the brink of war thanks to U.S. intervention and Saudi mediation, which led to a durable ceasefire that remains in effect. According to Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, Saudi Arabia played an active role in brokering the ceasefire between India and Pakistan. He confirmed that 30 countries, including the United States and Turkey, were involved in intense diplomatic efforts to halt hostilities. Dar further clarified that the understanding with India was not a partial deal but rather a comprehensive agreement, highlighting the reactivation of military communication channels and hotlines between the two nations—steps that were also confirmed by India's Ministry of External Affairs.

Lebanese Army Accuses Israel of Hindering Full Deployment in the South - Jordan News
Lebanese Army Commander Rodolphe Hélou asserted on Thursday that the Israeli 'enemy' is obstructing the army's full deployment in southern Lebanon. اضافة اعلان In a statement marking Resistance and Liberation Day, the army chief said: 'The Israeli enemy persists in its violations and continuous assaults against our country and our people. It continues to occupy parts of our land and obstructs the full deployment of the army in the south, which constitutes a blatant violation of all relevant international resolutions.' He added: 'This occasion comes at a time of great difficulty and danger, following a comprehensive Israeli aggression on Lebanon—especially the south—that resulted in thousands of martyrs and wounded, and caused widespread destruction of property and infrastructure.' He stressed that the catastrophic consequences of that aggression remain visible, but it also revealed the national spirit of the Lebanese people and their solidarity in standing by one another during the attack. Hélou also highlighted the army's exceptional efforts in combating terrorism and organized crime, securing and protecting the northern and eastern borders, and ensuring the safety of the municipal and local elections, which he said reflect the will of the Lebanese people, their commitment to their unique national model, and their aspirations for a better future. Despite a ceasefire agreement that came into effect on November 27, Israel continues to carry out airstrikes in southern and eastern Lebanon, as well as in the southern suburbs of Beirut, and its forces remain stationed at five locations in southern Lebanon.
