The joint coordination mechanism between the United States, Lebanon and Israel has been informed that the Lebanese Army, during its operations in one of the pilot phase areas, had discovered a Hezbollah weapons cache, Israeli media reports said.

The Israeli army struck Tuesday a residential building in the southern town of Nabatieh al-Fawqa along the Israeli-declared Yellow Line.

Forces also detonated overnight into Tuesday houses in Adshit, Markaba, Deir Seryan, Qseir, Majdalzoun, al-Mansouri and Bint Jbeil.

President Joseph Aoun on Monday told U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk that Israel's continued destruction of homes and bulldozing of villages in the south constitutes “a direct violation of human rights and a blatant breach of international laws and norms, necessitating international action to put an end to it.”

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri told pro-Hezbollah al-Akhbar newspaper, in remarks published Monday, that "the only acceptable path" is securing a ceasefire and an Israeli withdrawal.

"What we wanted yesterday, today, and tomorrow is securing a permanent ceasefire and the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from occupied Lebanese territory," Berri said, adding that he still rejects the framework agreement and any direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel.

Druze leader Walid Jumblat has emphasized that the most important thing is to preserve “the memory of south Lebanon and Jabal Amel in coexistence, struggle, resilience, intellectual and cultural contributions, scholarship and attachment to the land.”

Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has said that Syria has no intention of launching any military intervention into neighboring Lebanon, despite repeated remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump on the issue.

Instead, he told Al-Jazeera that his government is currently discussing ways for Lebanese authorities to overcome the country’s current crisis and steer it towards safety.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a Cabinet meeting that he will resist U.S. pressure to pull forces from Lebanon, Gaza, and Syria, Israeli media reported Monday.

Channel 13 quoted Netanyahu as telling his ministers that Washington is pushing for Israeli troop withdrawals from several fronts, including southern Lebanon, and that he will "stand on my own two feet and resist" any pressure to pull forces out prematurely.

President Joseph Aoun has discussed regional developments and the situation in southern Lebanon in a phone call with French President Emmanuel Macron.

Aoun also updated Macron on his recent visit to Washington, the presidency said Sunday in a post on the X platform.

"He who is admired by Saudi Arabia is admired by the whole world, and it seems Saudi Arabia admires me more than some Lebanese people," Speaker Nabih Berri has said.

"I've always said it, and I still say it: we in Lebanon need a tripartite guarantee comprised of Saudi Arabia, the United States and Iran," said Berri in an interview with the Asas Media news portal.

President Joseph Aoun called Friday on the European Union to support the implementation of a framework agreement reached in late June with Israel.

Aoun said Lebanon is committed to the path of reforms, despite being under Israeli attacks since October 2023, when Hezbollah joined the Gaza war in support of Hamas and the Palestinian people.
