Disarmament

President Trump announced he canceled a planned military strike on Iran, claiming that parameters for a deal to end the war were reached. Iran denied any agreement, calling Trump's claim a psychological operation. The IDF killed three terrorists in Gaza who were advancing attacks on troops, and completed a brigade mission in southern Lebanon after dismantling over 1,200 Hezbollah sites. The Lebanese army walked back an accusation that Israel struck its soldiers, attributing injuries to a suspicious object.

The US-announced Hamas disarmament agreement is encountering sharp opposition from Israeli coalition members, while the Strait of Hormuz remains closed by Iran and the IDF killed a Hamas commander involved in the October 7 abductions. Hezbollah issued statements condemning Israeli actions in southern Lebanon and US strikes in Iraq.
