The day's editorial focus centered on Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem's public rejection of disarmament and his insistence that negotiations with Israel be limited to 'mutual security.' This stance, reported across LBC, Naharnet, and L'Orient-Le Jour, dominated the afternoon cycle and was amplified by Al-Manar. Earlier, editors tracked Israeli ground incursions into Haddatha and airstrikes on Nabatieh, alongside diplomatic maneuvering around a US-Iran memorandum. By midday, Kataeb and Janoubia highlighted Beirut's rejection of an 'Iranian annex' to the deal, while Speaker Berri stressed UNIFIL's role. The evening saw publication of the full US-Iran text and Qassem's call for President Aoun to halt direct talks with Israel, framing the day as a consolidation of Hezbollah's negotiating red lines amid ongoing military pressure in the south.
