⋯ Lebanese Foreign Minister after his meeting with PM Mikati:

"We discussed the issue of the 3 UAVs, and Lebanon considers that any action not by the state or diplomatic means is unacceptable and exposes it to unnecessary risks."

New Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid: "The Lebanese government needs to rein in Hezbollah or we will be compelled to do it ourselves"

A retired soldier from the Lebanese security forces was arrested for raping more then 20 minors from both genders.

The arrest took place in Al Qaa town, in Baalbek-Hermel Governorate.

Sources: President Aoun is annoyed by PM Mikati's stance against the resistance

«A diplomatic battle broke out, led by US ambassador Dorothy Shea and European diplomats, who worked to spread an atmosphere of intimidation. [Lebanon's MFA eventually condemned the drone operation yesterday, after consulting with PM Mikati.] It should be noted that informed circles in Baabda [Presidency Palace] were "surprised by the prime minister's position. Mikati and Bouhabib did not ask anyone about the matter, while they knew it is at the heart of the powers of the president of the Republic in charge of negotiating this file".»

«President Aoun, of course, does not want the negotiations to be disrupted, but he did not see anyhow the drone operation harms Lebanon's position. MP ⁠Gebran Bassil is also not far from this viewpoint.»

⋯ 🔴 The newspaper continues:

«President Aoun explicitly indicated that Lebanon requests "that the [Israeli] answer be more detailed, in terms of determining what Israel accepts and what it rejects, and that it be in writing". There is a fear of new [deceptive] maneuvers, with Hochstein hinting that the full answer may be delayed for about two ⁠months, which is how long the enemy needs to start extraction work.»

In a letter to President Abdelmadjid Tebboune: “The 5th of July 1962 in Algeria and the 5th of July 1975 in Lebanon – two dates in each other's history whose pages were lined with the blood of martyrs... (...) For Algeria, who woke up more than 60 years ago and raised awareness in us, for the 1.5 ⁠million martyrs who faced occupation, oppression, gallows and other sorts of torture with an unbreakable will, unrelenting determination and a smile that became an address of pride and dignity and a path to freedom that is taken and not granted, they are the role models that we follow and will not go astray.”.
