Agreed. I don't know what all these vids are about but the title of this thread is spot on.Under the Geneva and Hague Conventions, armed forces are required to wear insignia, distinguish themselves from civilians, avoid using civilians as shields, and operate from legitimate military positions.
Hamas violates every one of these principles. It fights from schools, hospitals, mosques, and densely populated neighborhoods. It stores rockets in UN facilities and clinics. Its fighters wear no uniforms.
Israeli officials have said that Trump’s final approval would be required before any operation near Beirut’s southern suburbs. Under the proposed framework, the ceasefire would begin in Beirut and gradually expand to other parts of Lebanon as IDF operations are reduced.In exchange, he said, Hezbollah had agreed that all shooting will stop – “That Israel will not attack them, and they will not attack Israel.”
Later, Netanyahu announced that he had told Trump that “if Hezbollah doesn’t stop attacking our towns and citizens – Israel will attack terror targets in Beirut.”
He also said that the IDF would continue to operate as planned in southern Lebanon.
The Lebanese Embassy in Washington had earlier confirmed that Hezbollah had accepted the US proposal, saying that the ceasefire framework would be expanded to encompass “all Lebanese territories.”
The embassy’s statement also claimed that Trump had told Lebanon’s Ambassador to the United States that Netanyahu had also agreed to the arrangement.
The IDF has identified the fallen IDF officer as Cpt. Eitan Shmuel Lemberg, 21, of the 7th Armored Brigade’s 75th Battalion. Yesterday evening, the Mishmar HaShiv’a native was operating with his unit in southern Lebanon near the Litani River when an anti-tank missile was fired by a Hezbollah operative, with the IDF striking the location from which it was fired in response.On Friday, the IDF issued new evacuation warnings for nine villages and towns in southern Lebanon, ahead of airstrikes targeting Hezbollah.
Residents of Aarnaya, Aanqoun and Kfar Fila were instructed to evacuate at least a kilometer away.
Later, the army issued a separate statement warning residents of Sarafand, Tefahta, Babliyeh, Qaaqaaiyet al-Snoubar, Merouaniyeh and Saksakiyeh to head north of the Zahrani River.
“In light of the Hezbollah terror organization’s violations of the ceasefire agreement and its targeting of Israel’s home front, the IDF is forced to act against it with force, especially in your areas. The IDF does not intend to harm you,” warned army spokesman Col. Avichay Adraee.
Iran has not yet made a final decision and reportedly remains unwilling to compromise on any of the regime’s “red lines” during negotiations. As a result, any proposed time and location for a final signing remain speculative, despite Trump’s assertion that the agreement could be finalized within the next few days. He maintains that the deal would ensure Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon. The proposed framework envisions a 60-day ceasefire during which nuclear talks would take place, and the Strait of Hormuz would be reopened.Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump said: “Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as president of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening.”
“Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt and others,” he said.
But he added that the US blockade on Iran-linked shipping would “remain in full force and effect until this transaction is finalized” — indicating the deal has not been finalized.
“Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly,” Trump continued.
Despite the attacks, President Trump said Iran remains eager to negotiate and that the latest strikes would not lead to a new war. However, The Jerusalem Post also reports that the White House is preparing for what could become a multi-day or even multi-week exchange of fire over the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. officials added that Iran is losing leverage as increasing numbers of commercial vessels continue to pass through the waterway.CENTCOM also released a statement justifying the strikes, saying, “The United States is holding Iran accountable for recent unjustified aggression against commercial shipping and civilian crews freely navigating a vital international waterway.”
Iran’s army said in a statement released by state media that it had launched attacks at US Patriot systems with drones in Kuwait, an early warning site in Qatar (satellite antenna) and a fuel storage facility of the US army in Bahrain.
Kuwait said its armed forces had engaged with a cruise missile, three ballistic missiles and 10 drones in its airspace, and that one person had been injured from falling shrapnel.
Sirens also sounded in Jordan on Thursday after missiles launched from Iran were detected in Jordanian airspace, the state news agency reported. Eight of ten missiles, which were fired at Jordan’s Azraq military base, were intercepted.
