Hezbollahâs new leader Naim Qassem launched a scathing attack on the United States and Israel, declaring that calls for Hezbollah to disarm are part of a Zionist agenda. Accusing the U.S. of acting as a puppet for Israeli interests, Qassem vowed that Hezbollah will not lay down its arms or retreat from southern Lebanon. His defiant remarks come amid growing international and domestic pressure, with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun reaffirming his commitment to disarming all non-state actors.

A Hezbollah fighter was killed and four others injured in a deadly Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon's Nabatieh province. The IDF targeted a motorcycle in the Bint Jbeil district, reportedly eliminating Haitham Mohammad Idris, a known Hezbollah member. This marks yet another escalation despite a fragile ceasefire in place since November 27.
Earlier the same day, Israeli forces also dropped stun grenades and opened fire in Ramieh village. Lebanese officials have condemned the strikes as a âflagrant violationâ of the truce, while tensions continue to rise over disputed border areas still occupied by Israeli forces.
As ceasefire violations multiply and regional instability grows, the nearly 14-month-long conflict between Israel and Hezbollah shows no sign of slowing. Could this be the beginning of another full-scale war?

At a White House press briefing, U.S. President Donald Trump addressed Prime Minister Netanyahuâs decision to fully occupy Gaza, stating the move is âup to Israel.â Trump also revealed he watched the disturbing Hamas video showing Israeli hostage Evyatar David being forced to dig his own grave inside a Gaza tunnel, calling it âhorrible.â While Trump highlighted recent U.S. aid contributions of $60 million to Gaza, he refused to take a firm stance on Israelâs reoccupation plan, signaling deep diplomatic caution amid an escalating humanitarian crisis and global outrage.

At a tense United Nations session, the brother of an Israeli hostage delivered an emotional and scathing address, condemning Hamas over a chilling âpropagandaâ video that showed his sibling looking frail and emaciated â âa living skeleton.â His powerful words drew global attention to the plight of hostages and the psychological warfare at play, as he urged world leaders to act decisively.

Shocking video footage shows Israeli settlers and security forces physically blocking humanitarian aid trucks from entering Gaza as the enclave faces catastrophic famine. The United Nations and Danish Refugee Council warn that 70% of Gazans are now too weak to reach aid, with starvation and psychological trauma spreading across the population. The IDF reportedly killed 83 Palestinians during recent operations, as food deliveries remain restricted. Meanwhile, Germanyâs BILD targets a Palestinian journalist, accusing him of staging âHamas propagandaâ â despite evidence showing the photos were taken during real aid distribution. As pressure mounts globally, Israel faces growing accusations of weaponizing starvation in its war on Gaza.

Hours after Iranian FM Araghchi reaffirmed Iranâs refusal to abandon nuclear enrichment, the IDF issued a sharp warning, vowing the campaign against Iran âisnât over.â Israel signaled continued military readiness, citing multi-front operations against Hezbollah and Iranian targets. Araghchi called the nuclear program a national achievement, while acknowledging U.S. B-2 bomber strikes caused severe damage. Trump shared the remarks as proof of success, threatening further attacks. With Iranâs defiance and Israelâs vow to strike, the Middle East risks sliding toward a wider regional conflict.

Iran is secretly rearming its regional proxies after the ceasefire with Israel, plotting a âsilent revengeâ against the U.S. and its allies. Houthi rebels have resumed Red Sea attacks, Hezbollah is regrouping despite major losses, and Iranian-backed militias in Iraq are targeting vital oil fields. With Assadâs fall blocking key supply routes, Tehran is racing to rebuild its network of influence. U.S. officials warn Iran could use these proxies as leverage in future nuclear talks, raising fears of a renewed wave of proxy wars across the Middle East.

Dozens of Israeli Druze crossed from the Golan Heights into Syriaâs Sweida province amid escalating violence between Druze militias, Bedouin tribes, and Syrian government forces. The move followed calls on social media urging Druze solidarity across borders. In response to what Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said was a Syrian plan to use weapons against the Druze, Israel launched airstrikes on Syrian military convoys, killing and wounding several personnel. Syria condemned the strikes and accused Israel of causing civilian deaths. Despite a declared ceasefire by Syria's defense minister, clashes continued, and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported the execution of at least 19 Druze civilians.

In a stunning diplomatic development, officials from Israel and Syria are holding quiet, backchannel talks for the first time in over a decade. This move comes after months of intense regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups like Hamas and Hezbollah, pushing both Jerusalem and Damascus to reassess their long-standing enmity. The United States, with backing from Donald Trump and his envoy Tom Barrack Jr., is mediating the effort, aiming to cool tensions along the volatile Golan Heights border.
At the center of this pivot is Syria's new president, Ahmed al-Shara, who has signaled a dramatic shift from the hardline rejectionism of the Bashar al-Assad era. The primary driver for this newfound diplomacy is a shared strategic goal: limiting the influence of Iran and its proxies in southern Syria. For Israel, this is a matter of national security; for al-Shara's new government, it's a path toward securing sovereignty, gaining Western legitimacy, and obtaining much-needed economic relief.
While full normalization seems distant, both sides are exploring a revival of the 1974 U.N. Disengagement Agreement, which previously ensured stability in the Golan Heights. In a significant gesture, the Trump administration has lifted the terrorist designation on al-Shara's former group, and Israeli leaders have softened their tone, describing him as someone they could potentially work with. However, analysts remain cautious, pointing to al-Sharaâs past and the lack of public support for peace in Syria as major hurdles.
Despite the challenges, the fact that these talks are happening at all represents a potential seismic shift in Middle East politics. This report breaks down the key players, the high stakes, and what this surprising diplomacy could mean for the future of the region.

Hamas has released new hostage videos showing Israeli captive Dalal in a starving state, igniting nationwide shock and international condemnation. Iris Haim, mother of slain hostage Yotam, is urging Israel to surrender to save the remaining captives in Gaza. Her son was tragically killed by IDF fire while escaping Hamas captivity. As protests erupt across Tel Aviv, Israeli PM Netanyahu faces mounting pressure. Meanwhile, Hamas leaders defend the October 7 attack as a âstrategic success,â claiming it led to global recognition of Palestine. French President Macron called the videos âabject cruelty.â

As the Middle East teeters on the edge of wider conflict, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a high-stakes phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The Kremlin confirmed that Putin underscored Russiaâs commitment to peaceful solutions amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. In a bold diplomatic move, Moscow offered to mediate stalled nuclear negotiations involving Tehran, positioning itself as a central figure in the crisis.
Notably, Putin warned against any actions that may compromise Syriaâs sovereignty, stressing the need to respect the nation's territorial integrity and internal political stability. This conversation comes at a time when military strikes, political instability, and nuclear fears are threatening to ignite a broader regional war. With Syria caught in the crossfire and international alliances under strain, the Putin-Netanyahu call may signal a renewed effort to de-escalate before itâs too late.

Israel faces mounting global condemnation over its military campaign in Gaza, accused of using starvation tactics and blocking aid. Despite backlash, Prime Minister Netanyahu has doubled down, vowing to continue operations until Hamas is fully eliminated. With over 20,000 Hamas fighters reportedly still active and Israeli casualties rising, the war grinds on. Europe and human rights groups have urged Israel and the U.S. to halt the blockade, but Netanyahu, speaking from Ramon Air Base, insists on seeing through what he calls Israel's âwar goals.â Gazaâs humanitarian crisis deepens.
