08.07.2026The Day Trump Declared the Iran Accord Over

The day was dominated by President Trump's declaration that the US-Iran memorandum of understanding had ended, following overnight American strikes on Iranian targets. Editors across Kataeb, MTV, Naharnet, and Addiyar led with Trump's statement that 'the ceasefire is over' and threats of further strikes. This escalation overshadowed the morning's diplomatic breakthrough: a formal White House invitation for President Aoun to visit Washington on July 21, reported by LBC and Kataeb. By midday, Lebanon conditioned its participation in Rome negotiations on Israeli withdrawal from two pilot zones, while Gemayel demanded Hezbollah 'shut up.' The afternoon saw Trump predict Israel would withdraw from south Lebanon. Meanwhile, Al-Manar and affiliates continued extensive coverage of Khamenei's funeral processions in Najaf and Karbala, drawing millions. The release of singer Fadl Shaker on health grounds also drew attention across outlets.
