U.S. envoy to Syria, Tom Barrack, has said that everything Lebanon is doing is talk without real action.

He told Sky News Arabia in an interview Sunday, that Israel will not withdraw from the five occupied points and that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu doesn't care about borders or red lines if he feels Israel is threatened.

President Joseph Aoun has condemned the Israeli drone strike that killed five civilians including children in Bint Jbeil as a "massacre" and called on the international community to press Israel to respect the ceasefire.

"As we are in New York to discuss matters of peace and human rights, Israel continues its ongoing violations of international resolutions," Aoun said, according to a presidency statement on X.

An Israeli drone strike in southern Lebanon killed five people Sunday, including three children, Lebanon's Health Ministry said. Two others were wounded, including the mother in the family.

The state-run National News Agency reported that the strike, near Bint Jbeil, had targeted a motorcycle.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel's war with Hezbollah had created the possibility for peace with Lebanon and Syria.

Syria and Israel have technically been at war since 1948, but the two states opened direct negotiations after the ouster of long-time ruler Bashar al-Assad, and hope to finalize security and military agreements by the end of this year, a Syrian official said this week.

Lebanese officials have been informed of a one-month deadline for settling the arms file, a media report said.

Lebanon said a strike in the country's south killed one person Saturday while Israel said it targeted a Hezbollah operative, the latest deadly attack despite a months-old ceasefire between Israel and the militant group.

The Cypriot government has expressed its readiness to be part of the mediations for the release of the Israel-held Lebanese captives, in continuation of its part in the mediation that led to the release of Israeli-Russian academic Elizabeth Tsurkov who was kidnapped in Iraq, Lebanese sources informed on the negotiations said.

“Through a lightning visit to Beirut and a meeting with a prominent security official following up on the file, Cypriot intelligence chief Tasos Tzionis carried his country’s desire to continue the mediation it had started,” the sources told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper.

Hezbollah chief Sheikh Naim Qassem stressed Friday that Hezbollah’s “resistance” will continue, despite the mounting Israeli and U.S. pressure.

“Israel is the danger and not the resistance,” Qassem said in a televised address marking one year since the assassination of nearly the entire command of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Unit in an Israeli airstrike that also killed around 50 civilians.

U.S. envoy Morgan Ortgus will pressure the Lebanese army command to accelerate the implementation of its plan to disarm Hezbollah north and south of the Litani River as she visits Lebanon this weekend, media reports said Friday.

Al-Binaa said that, according to sources, Ortgus will arrive Saturday in Lebanon to meet with the five-member ceasefire monitoring committee -- France, the U.S., Lebanon, Israel, and the UNIFIL -- over the disarmament plan and its implementation. She will not meet with Lebanese leaders and politicians, the daily said.

An Israeli drone strike targeted Friday a car at the entrance of the Tebnin government hospital in south Lebanon.

The strike killed one person and wounded 11 others, including two critically, according to the Health Ministry.
