Hezbollah’s explosive warning has sent shockwaves through Israel, as the group’s Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem issued a final ultimatum demanding the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanese territory by February 18. In a fiery statement, Qassem warned of severe consequences if Israel fails to comply, escalating fears of a potential military confrontation.
Qassem also took direct aim at former U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, accusing them of attempting to erase Palestine through policies he described as "political genocide." He slammed Trump’s approach to the Palestinian cause, calling it an orchestrated effort to eliminate Palestinian identity and sovereignty.

US President Donald Trump appears to step back from his controversial Gaza plan after Egypt and Jordan voiced strong opposition. In a Fox News interview, Trump admitted he was “a little bit surprised” by their rejection. His proposal aimed to “take over” Gaza, eliminate Hamas, and restart development under US control. However, without regional buy-in, Trump now says he will not force the plan but will “sit back and recommend it.” This shift signals potential challenges in implementing any long-term strategy for Gaza’s future governance and stability.

Iran Fires Back at Netanyahu, Trump’s SecState’s ‘Finish the Job’ Threat. Iran has strongly reacted to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vow to "finish the job" against Tehran, calling it a gross violation of international law. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei condemned Netanyahu’s remarks, stating that Israel "can't do a thing" against Iran. The comments were made during Netanyahu's joint appearance with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Israel, where they discussed Israel’s ongoing conflict with Iran-backed groups in Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen. Iran views these threats as hollow and an infringement on international peace.
