Israel kills three within 24 hours in Southern Lebanon
Shafaq News/ A Lebanese citizen was killed on Thursday in an Israeli drone strike targeting a Rapid vehicle in the border town of Houla, the Lebanese Health Ministry announced.

Despite the announcement of a ceasefire agreement on November 26, tensions remain elevated along the Lebanese-Israeli frontier.
The agreement outlined a phased Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory within 60 days. That deadline was later extended to February 18, 2025, but implementation has seen minimal progress.
Lebanese authorities reported that Israel has carried out nearly 3,000 violations of the ceasefire since it took effect. At least 215 people have been killed and more than 500 wounded during this period, according to official figures.

Trump disputes Khamenei's victory claim
Shafaq News - Washington On Saturday, US President Donald Trump challenged Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's assertions about winning the recent war with Israel, expressing skepticism about their accuracy. In a post on Truth Social, Trump described Khamenei's claim as false, stressing that the Iranian leader is aware it does not reflect reality. 'He knows it's not true,' Trump wrote, while also mentioning being fully aware of Khamenei's location during the conflict but choosing not to authorize US or Israeli forces to target him. Trump further revealed that, in the final phase of the war, he requested Israel to recall a large number of aircraft that were en route to Tehran, highlighting its efforts to explore possible measures, including easing sanctions on Iran, aimed at giving the country a chance to recover.

Lebanese Tech Expert Majed Jaber Warns On Hizbullah's Al-Manar TV: Israel Signed 'Massive Contracts' With Google And OpenAI, Receives All The Data We Enter Online, Which Helps It Identify Hizbullah Me
On June 7, 2025, Lebanese tech expert Majed Jaber appeared on Al-Manar TV (Hizbullah–Lebanon), where he warned viewers that Israel can access people's information through AI apps and phone use and identify them as members of Hizbullah. He warned that when Lebanese users sign into Google, all their data is sent to "the Israeli enemy." Jaber claimed that everything users enter into ChatGPT is sent to Israel, which he said has signed "massive contracts" with OpenAI. He stated that Israel operates a cloud infrastructure called "Nimbus," which he alleged stores data from social media and personal devices. To view the clip, clip below: Majed Jaber: "We all use ChatGPT, but everything you put into ChatGPT goes to Israel. Israel has signed massive contracts with OpenAI. According to these contracts, all the information about Lebanese and other people goes to... They have a cloud Nimbus. They store there all the data from social media and from your devices. They have even signed contracts with Google. [...] "The AI [system] receives all the data and stores it. It connects everything through algorithms. The deep analysis that takes place in the heart of the AI is very advanced. If it monitors a person, how does it know if that person is part of the Resistance or not? It inspects the nature of that person's communications and creates a profile of him. Through his phone number, it detects all the people he has called. His picture, the nature of his posts, and even his movements – it stores everything. Then the algorithms decide whether he belongs to the Resistance or not, and he supports it or not. If he is not a Resistance member, it creates a profile of him. Therefore, we need to be careful not to say everything on our phones. We must not say everything to AI apps."
