Tensions in West Asia
According to US President Donald Trump, a deal finalised by the Gaza Board of Peace will oversee the disarmament of Hamas, marking what he called a “historic step” for Israel’s security and future Palestinian governance in the region.
Meanwhile, Israel executed large scale midnight strikes across southern Lebanon, targeting Yohmor al-Chqif, Arnoun, and Kfar Tebnit, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency.
