Al Jadeed: Tony Haddad is the one accused of betraying the Free Patriotic Movement and instigating the imposition of sanctions on Bassil to break his association with Hezbollah, adding that he sought to participate in the Lebanese delegation negotiating on the maritime borders.
🇸🇾 SANA:

4 American occupying soldiers were killed after their vehicle was targeted with an explosive device on Al-Hasakah Road, Deir Ezzor, Syria.
Wonder why the Israeli occupiers are happy about this meme, as if their prime minister has ever changed.

Director of the American Middle East Coalition for Democracy Tom Harb: More than 800 names have been submitted to the US Department of State from Lebanon about personalities who have ties to Hezbollah by Lebanese themselves in exchange for money.
MTV: The sanctions on Bassil have become a major factor in the government formation process.

Note: US disrupted the formation of the government with Adib and now did the same with Hariri's.
Due to the economic situation and pressure on some ministers (namely the interior minister) the Coronavirus taskforce is tending to adopt a partial lock instead of a full scale lockdown.
Israeli Media: Maari'v:

A Zionist security official said that we should benefit more from the USA in Lebanon by making the USA deny them aid unless they standup to Hezbullah's accurate missile program. https://t.co/m6kXloZfnR
Wednesday will be the fourth round of indirect negotiations to demarcate the maritime borders:

1- Lebanon demanded the restoration of 2,290 km² of occupied water.

2- The enemy refuses to negotiate outside of the 860 km² range

3- The Americans are pressuring Lebanon through the ambassador and the UN coordinator.

In this picture, you can see rocks that the Israeli side considers islands where the border should start. Yet, they aren't islands.
The Palestinian one.

The Jordanian one. https://t.co/dr9n4ZBNCl
Ministry of Health: 1,119 new cases of coronavirus and 9 new deaths were registered in Lebanon on Sunday.
Health Minister Hamad Hassan announces that Lebanon will be from the first to benefit from the Pfizer vaccine when it's commercialized.

Qatar has also provided two field hospitals with 1,000 beds in Tyre and Tripoli. https://t.co/pVDdLP1MME
It seems the Israeli ***** are angry we might get the vaccine that fast and are advocating for "Demilitarization of Hezbullah to get that vaccine." https://t.co/9ZtCr6aT0d
Bassil's media office: The American ambassador gave proof that there is no evidence of the accusations against the leader of the movement of involvement in corruption.

She technically said "we said all" and the treasury literally said nothing outside general rant.
Basil: If the American policy has so far failed to break the understanding between FPM and Hezbollah despite all the pressure that Washington has exercised over the years and despite all the threats and intrigues, then the attempt to drive the wedge between them through a media is a funny useless attempt.
Israeli journalist Barak Ravid from the Hebrew website Walla and Axios had an "exclusive" interview with Bahaa Al Hariri. https://t.co/ZzmgxqpuSC
