On May 30, 2026, Lebanon's Prime Minister, Salam, condemned Israel's military actions in southern Lebanon, labeling them a 'scorched-earth policy' that involves the destruction of towns and villages, leading to the forced exile of residents. In his televised address, Salam urged for an immediate cessation of hostilities, asserting that such measures would not yield security or stability for Israel. Concurrently, the United States issued a warning regarding its military capabilities against Iran, with President Donald Trump emphasizing that any peace agreement must ensure Iran does not develop nuclear weapons. While the White House hinted at a potential decision regarding a peace deal, Tehran has denied any finalized agreement to end the conflict. The situation remains volatile, with Israel conducting fresh airstrikes and issuing evacuation orders for numerous locations, further escalating tensions in the region. As the conflict continues, international observers are closely monitoring the developments, particularly the implications for regional security and diplomatic relations.
