Israel plans to establish a buffer zone in southern Lebanon up to the Litani River, potentially occupying nearly a tenth of the country, according to its defence minister, citing security needs. Meanwhile, Masoud Pezeshkian claimed a growing global “awakening” against the US and Israel, asserting that people across multiple regional countries are increasingly opposing their actions. He emphasised that lasting stability depends on cooperation and respect for national sovereignty. The developments reflect intensifying geopolitical tensions in West Asia, with military posturing and political rhetoric escalating simultaneously, raising concerns over regional stability and broader international implications.
