The call, initiated by Saudi Arabia, covered OPEC Plus coordination and bilateral relations. With Trump's pro-Israel stance and history of facilitating Saudi-Israel normalization, this conversation gains strategic significance. As US-Saudi relations may improve under Trump, Putin's engagement suggests Russia's effort to maintain Middle East influence, while leveraging OPEC Plus partnerships.

Hezbollah launched a devastating counteroffensive against Israel on Monday, firing over 165 rockets in one of the deadliest strikes since the war in Gaza began. The missiles struck northern Israel, including the city of Haifa, causing significant damage and injuring at least seven people, including a toddler. The barrage comes just a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly admitted to authorising military operations against Hezbollah in September, including a deadly “pager attack” that resulted in 39 deaths and over 3,000 injuries.
