Lebanon’s political stalemate has ended with the election of Army Chief Joseph Aoun as president, after 13 failed attempts and over a year without a leader. Aoun’s election comes during a delicate ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel, following devastating clashes that left Lebanon reeling. Backed by international powers like the US and Saudi Arabia, Aoun’s presidency is seen as a potential turning point for the country’s fractured politics and strained international relations.Hezbollah’s role in the election has raised questions about its future influence, especially as the group has been weakened by the recent conflict with Israel. Aoun, viewed as a reformist leader, faces monumental challenges, including rebuilding Lebanon’s shattered economy, navigating the fragile peace with Israel, and maintaining national unity amid deep political divisions.

Severe flooding has hit Saudi Arabia, particularly in Mecca, Jeddah, and Madinah, after record-breaking rainfall caused widespread destruction. Torrential downpours have turned streets into rivers, submerging cars, flooding highways, and causing major disruptions. The Saudi Meteorological Department issued a red alert for these cities as water levels reached dangerous heights. Footage from the affected regions shows scenes of cars almost completely submerged, with only the tops of their roofs visible above the water. In Jeddah, a city already prone to flooding, residents were seen abandoning their vehicles and scrambling to safety as water inundated streets. Similar scenes were recorded in Mecca, including the holy city's streets, which have become impassable.

In a bold statement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the Houthis would pay a "heavy price" after Israeli fighter jets targeted key Houthi positions in Yemen. The airstrikes, which are part of Israel's ongoing efforts to combat Iranian-backed terror in the Middle East, have sent shockwaves through the region. Netanyahu highlighted the Houthis as a major threat to both Israel's security and global freedom of navigation, citing their attacks on international shipping and their close ties to Iran. With tensions rising, this new escalation raises questions about the future of Middle Eastern geopolitics and the ongoing struggle for regional influence.

Israeli officials have warned of a growing threat from Turkey's increasing support for Syrian factions, especially following Turkey’s strategic ambitions in the Middle East. The Nagel Commission report emphasizes that this could become an even greater risk to Israel than the ongoing concerns with Iran. Israel’s defense strategy is shifting, with recommendations to boost offensive military capabilities and allocate a larger defense budget. This evolving situation reflects broader regional instability, exacerbated by Turkey’s involvement and recent developments in Syria.
