The day's editorial focus centered on the US-Iran talks in Switzerland producing a concrete mechanism for Lebanon: a 'de-confliction cell.' Morning headlines reported Iran and the US agreeing to set up the cell, with Iranian officials calling it a 'special mechanism' for the Lebanon file. By midday, mediators formally announced the cell, and US VP Vance described 'very good progress' on a deconfliction mechanism. President Aoun held calls with Vance, Kushner, and Qatar's PM to discuss the ceasefire, asserting that Lebanon negotiates for itself. Hezbollah's Qassem warned of responses to violations, while Kataeb's leader rejected coexistence with Hezbollah's arms. Netanyahu insisted on a security zone and IDF freedom in the south. The day saw the diplomatic track yield an institutional outcome, even as military and political tensions persisted.
