Israel on Tuesday carried out a rare strike on Beirut, which it said killed the Hezbollah commander who was allegedly behind a weekend rocket attack that killed 12 young people in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights.
Hezbollah did not immediately confirm the commanderâs death.

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?

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.

#AhmedAlShara,
Syriaâs former Foreign Minister Farouk Al-Sharaa has agreedâunder a secret dealâto drop Damascusâs longstanding claim to the Golan Heights in exchange for undisclosed political and security guarantees from Israel. If confirmed, the move would mark a historic shift in Middle East geopolitics, potentially opening the door to broader normalization between the two countries.

Nasser Al-Laham, the prominent head of Al Mayadeen TVâs Palestine bureau, has been arrested by Israeli forces following a violent pre-dawn raid on his home. According to reports by Al Mayadeen, Shin Bet officers stormed the house and destroyed belongings while searching for the studio from where Al-Laham appeared on-air.
The arrest comes amid increasing crackdowns on pro-resistance media voices in the occupied territories. Al-Laham was transferred to the notorious Ofer Court in the occupied West Bank, where his detention was extended until Thursday. The operation has triggered outrage among journalists, human rights groups, and regional media networks, who condemn the targeting of press freedom. Al Mayadeen, a Beirut-based channel often critical of Israel and aligned with the Resistance Axis, has described the arrest as an attempt to silence Palestinian voices. This development adds further tension to an already volatile West Bank, where media suppression is becoming increasingly common.

Hezbollahâs Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem delivers a fiery warning to Israel and the U.S., vowing that Lebanon will never surrender to foreign âtyranny.â Speaking from Beirut, Qassem declared the resistance against Israeli occupation and American influence as âdivine and unstoppable.â As Israeli strikes escalate in South Lebanon, Hezbollah calls for national unity, warns against Western-backed factions, and frames its struggle as one for dignity, justice, and regional sovereignty. A bold message amid rising Middle East tensions.

In blatant defiance of a ceasefire agreement, Israeli drone strikes on Saturday killed at least two people and wounded several others in southern Lebanon. A drone strike in Mahrouna targeted a motorcycle, killing one and injuring two bystanders in a passing car. Hours earlier, another Israeli UAV strike hit a vehicle in Kounine, killing a Hezbollah resistance fighter, identified as Hassan Mohammad Jumaa.
These attacks mark yet another violation of the extended truce that began on November 27 and was supposed to hold past February 18. Despite its expiration, Lebanon had hoped for stability, but Israelâs continued occupation of strategic southern areas and recurring strikes have reignited regional tensions. Beirut has condemned the aggression and vowed to take âall necessary measuresâ to end Israelâs unlawful military presence. The international community remains silent as Tel Aviv pushes the boundaries of legality and human rights with impunity.
