The Lebanese Army announced dismantling an Israeli spy device and removing earthen barriers in Bleida and Meis al-Jabal, representing a direct confrontation with Israeli intelligence operations. Prime Minister Salam used his appearance at the Arab Media Summit to call for Lebanon "free from the duality of weapons" and returning to its "state and Arab identity," continuing the disarmament narrative established in previous days.
Reports emerged of direct talks between Syria and Israel for the first time in decades, with Ahmad Al-Dalati identified as the connection point between the countries. These developments follow the lifting of Syrian sanctions days earlier.
Tensions with Israel continued with the assassination of Nabil Blaghi in Yater, part of what Lebanese media described as Israel's ongoing "escalation campaign." Meanwhile, a Lebanese Army delegation visited Syria to discuss border developments, signaling increased regional security coordination amid changing geopolitical dynamics.
