This morning, Israel withdrew from its first Lebanese village since the invasion in March, and the Lebanese Armed Forces have moved in to fill the void. The question is: Does this signal the beginning of a forced Israeli retreat, or the start of Lebanon’s long road to recovery? The answer is complicated. Israel can continue destroying Hezbollah infrastructure indefinitely, but it will pay massive international costs for doing so, with no way, short of a full invasion, to extinguish the group entirely. The framework agreement gives Israel legitimacy and time to uproot Hezbollah, but what Lebanon gives, it can also take away. If Beirut loses momentum and descends into state collapse, the entire agreement evaporates, and Hezbollah recovers out of Israel’s reach. This is the project President Joseph Aoun carries to Washington, where he meets Trump for the first time. Trump had no direct communication with Aoun during his first year in office—no meetings, calls, or letters. His sole contact has been in the form of inconsistent messaging on Lebanon’s fate: declaring after the June 26 agreement that “Iran is out, Hezbollah is out, and the road to peace between Israel and Lebanon is in,” then pivoting to pressure Netanyahu for unconditional withdrawal in the spirit of the Iran MOU, telling him, “They don’t want you there. You should redeploy,” before abandoning both positions altogether in favor of his own scheme, declaring, “Syria will do the job.” Aoun has already proven his willingness to buck Iran and pursue eventual peace with Israel. That was enough to earn this meeting. But anyone with a functioning memory knows the track record is bleak. Lebanon’s LAF claimed to have cleared Hezbollah infrastructure south of the Litani in late 2025, yet Israel continues finding significant assets there a year since their declaration. More damning still, LAF commander Rodolphe Haykal has explicitly prioritized “civil peace” over confronting Hezbollah—a strange priority for a general with orders to the contrary. The Lebanese military has proven as effective at disarming Hezbollah as UN peacekeepers have been, which is to say, not at all. Lebanese leaders have repeatedly promised and failed to disarm the group over the past 35 years—from the Taif Accord through the 2024 ceasefire. The uncomfortable truth is that throughout Lebanon’s history, only foreign powers—the United States, France, Israel, and Syria—have successfully disarmed Lebanese militias. Before Aoun goes all in on Hezbollah disarmament, he needs ironclad U.S. commitments. That means Delta Force-style training units for elite LAF operations, drones and sensors for border security, organized international fundraising for reconstruction, and business initiatives to rebuild Lebanon’s shattered economy. He also needs assurance that Trump will not abandon him halfway through his push. Trump, for his part, will demand specifics: a detailed plan for Hezbollah disarmament, removal of military officers complicit with the group, suspension of anti-normalization laws blocking Israeli-Lebanese civilian contact, and a clear reaffirmation that peace with Israel is Aoun’s strategic objective. Most critically, Aoun must decisively kill Trump’s recurring fantasy of deploying Syrian troops into Lebanon—a move that would resurrect memories of Assad-era brutality and paradoxically strengthen Hezbollah’s popular support. The circumstances favor success. The U.S.-Iran MOU is in tatters, eliminating easy alternatives to the framework. This week’s Rome talks were productive. Pilot zones are advancing. Trump will likely warm to Aoun personally, provided he takes a note from Zelensky and wears a suit. But this is about far more than personal rapport; the future of Lebanon hangs in the balance.

🇸🇾🇱🇧 Clashes Erupt Between Lebanese Army and New Syrian State Near Baalbek Tensions escalated on the Lebanese-Syrian border after terrorists from the new Syrian administration attacked Lebanese army positions, injuring several soldiers. Shortly after, Syrian forces began amassing troops, hours after closing the border and denying access to Lebanese citizens. The closure followed the arrest of three Syrians by the Lebanese army for illegally entering Lebanon, later identified as members of the new Syrian armed forces. The clashes, which took place near Ma’arboun in Baalbek, have nothing to do with smugglers or Hezbollah, contrary to claims by large news accounts on X. The Lebanese army confirmed the confrontation is with the new Syrian state, which has refused to cooperate and continues its aggressive stance toward Lebanon. Fighting resumed with Syrian forces attacking a Lebanese army vehicle, leaving four soldiers moderately injured. The Lebanese army has deployed reinforcements to the region, while HTS has sent a delegation to mediate and de-escalate the situation. Clashes remain ongoing.

First Albania, then Italy, the Philippines, and now Lebanon. The Lebanese are rightfully opposing their treacherous government for signing an illegal deal with Israel, a violation of article 52 of their constitution, which opposes negotiations with Israel. The Lebanese military has responded by beating their own citizens! The pentagon now seeks to reward the treasonous Lebanese army with over $30 million to defend Israel’s illegal occupation of Lebanon.

The Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) withdrew from positions threatened by Israel the previous day, allowing Israel to intensify its ground operations in the south, entering Lebanon from the Ayta ash Shab and Yaroun axes, as well as bombing Lebanese localities in the south. In response, Hezbollah managed to destroy three more tanks and launched a wave of bombings on Israeli settlements in coordination with Iran along the border and north of Acre.🇮🇱 🇮🇷🇱🇧

Hezbollah struck a church in southern Lebanon. Then it attempted to blame Israel. The damage to a Christian religious site is not an isolated incident. It is the policy of a terrorist organization that operates from populated areas and endangers all segments of Lebanese society regardless of religion, sect, or community. As Iran's most powerful proxy, Hezbollah advances Tehran's interests at the expense of the Lebanese people. It uses Lebanese territory and its population as shields for its military operations. Hezbollah: Iran's proxy. Lebanon's tragedy. Israel's threat. 📷 Israel Defense Forces / Israel-Alma

🟡 BREAKING: Israel has bombed Beirut’s Dahyeih suburb. Since the ceasefire on November 27, 2024, Lebanese authorities have reported over 1,250 Israeli violations, resulting in at least 106 people killed and over 336 injuries. This is the first direct strike on Beirut since then. This morning, after two missiles were launched from southern Lebanon toward Israeli settlements, Israel carried out massive airstrikes across the South, targeting at least 11 locations, including Beirut. According to Al-Akhbar, Israel has also used white phosphorus munitions too. Hezbollah has denied involvement and reaffirmed its commitment to the ceasefire, accusing Israel of fabricating pretexts to justify its aggression on Lebanon. In addition to the ongoing violations and killings by Israel in Lebanon, Israel has refused to withdraw from Lebanese territory, maintaining its occupation.

For second day, Hezbollah rallied its base to protest the Lebanese gov's decision to hold direct talks with Israel. --- Yet another example of Hezbollah undermining the Lebanese gov. It has had some success as Lebanon’s PM Salam canceled his trip to the U.S. due to the unrest.

🇮🇱 Israel is moving large quantities of heavy military equipment toward the Lebanon border — including tanks and armored vehicles, with the flow reportedly continuing without interruption. 🔺 Preparations are underway for a ground incursion several dozen kilometers into Lebanese territory, aimed at clearing remaining Hezbollah forces. The operation may also extend into Dahieh, the southern suburb of Beirut, which is considered Hezbollah’s main fortified stronghold and command center.

⚠️ Israel has begun a new wave of strikes on Beirut, according to the Israeli military. Israel killed two professors in an airstrike on the Lebanese University campus, one of three Israeli attacks carried out in the capital Beirut this afternoon. Among those killed: • Dr. Hussein Bazzi, Director of the Faculty of Sciences • Dr. Murtada Srour, one of Lebanon’s leading physics experts. The Lebanese University is the country’s only national public university, a lifeline of higher education for thousands of students across Lebanon. These strikes appear aimed at pressuring the Lebanese government to confront Hezbollah. Has Israel run out of its so-called “military targets” that it is now killing professors at a university campus? What next - medics, students, journalists? Is this the Gaza playbook now being exported to Lebanon? A university campus. Two academics killed. This is what Israel calls “targets.” When universities become aims, even knowledge becomes the enemy.

20th July War Update - South Lebanon The Lebanese Army is preparing to enter the town of Zawtar Al-Gharbiyeh today (Tuesday) morning, following an Israeli withdrawal, as part of the implementation mechanism of the "ceasefire framework agreement", with coordination continuing among the relevant parties (americans) ahead of the start of its deployment in the town, while noting that Zawtar was not completely occupied by israelis before the ceasefire. (Video) The move comes as Israeli forces continue their daily military agressions across South Lebanon, including airstrikes, artillery shelling, demolitions, and the destruction of civilian homes in several villages, highlighting the continued deterioration of the security situation despite the ongoing implementation process. As Lebanese President J. Aoun continues his meetings in Washington, including expected talks with U.S. President Trump, the Israeli enemy has escalated its daily violations recently, showing how indifferent they are to all the diplomatic effort of the lebanese state. Throughout the day, Israeli warplanes carried out an airstrike on the outskirts of Al-Mansouri, while artillery shelled Nabatieh Al-Fawqa, Kfartebnit, and outskirts of Al-Mansouri. Israeli forces also conducted controlled demolitions in Beit Yahoun, Deir Seryan, Tyri, Kfartebnit, Taybeh, and Zawtars, opened machine-gun fire toward Haddatha, Majdal Zoun, Zawtar Al-Gharbiyeh, and Buyout Al-Sayyad, threw stun grenades toward Braachit and Al-Mansouri, and burned civilian homes in Kfartebnit.(video).

Hello! Here's what you need to know 1️⃣ The U.S. and Iran exchanged strikes once again. According to CENTCOM, Iranian forces attacked the Singapore-flagged cargo ship M/V Ever Lovely in the Strait of Hormuz. In response, U.S. aircraft struck Iranian missile and drone depots, as well as coastal radar stations. Iran later targeted U.S. military personnel in the region, according to Tasnim. 2️⃣ Israel and Lebanon signed a U.S.-brokered framework agreement aimed at de-escalating the conflict. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said two "pilot zones" in southern Lebanon will be handed over to the Lebanese Army, while the IDF will remain deployed in the rest of the area. 3️⃣ U.S. Vice President JD Vance said Washington would "respond to violence with violence," accusing Iran of violating the ceasefire.
