The day began with Lebanese media focusing on the intensifying US pressure for a year-end resolution of the arms file, alongside anticipated "fierce" parliamentary debates on government accountability. Early reports highlighted US demands for arms surrender by year-end, fueling internal political confrontations. By mid-morning, editorial attention significantly shifted to confirmed Israeli airstrikes targeting Bekaa, specifically Hezbollah's Radwan Force, with later reports confirming 12 casualties. Concurrently, US Envoy Barrack's statements were interpreted as "encrypted messages" reinforcing the arms timeline. Throughout the day, the parliamentary session on government policy continued, culminating in a bloc opposing arms exclusivity and urging handover. The evolving situation in Soueida, with reports of chaos, also gained traction.
