16.05.2026 ⇢ The Day of the Leaked Declaration of Intent
⌨
The day's dominant story was the leak of a draft declaration of intent between Israel and Lebanon, published by L'Orient-Le Jour, revealing terms including Lebanese sovereignty and Israeli security. This came as the 45-day ceasefire extension was formally announced, but Israeli strikes on southern Lebanon continued, with Hezbollah claiming ongoing operations. In the afternoon, Hezbollah marked the anniversary of the May 17 Agreement by rejecting any peace deal, calling it an 'illusion.' Meanwhile, a Saudi visit to Beirut was highlighted as pushing for settlement, and the US reportedly demanded security coordination with Israel and a new army brigade to disarm Hezbollah. The day ended with Trump warning Iran of a 'calm before the storm.'
