Israel Studies Its Options in Lebanon and Iran, and Trump May Participate in Negotiations Tonight

SadaNews Translation - Thursday evening, Hebrew media focused on developments on the Lebanese and Iranian fronts.

According to Channel 12, as translated by SadaNews, estimates in Israel suggest that by the beginning of next week, the direction in which US President Donald Trump will move will be known, with indications pointing towards an escalation in fighting.

According to the channel, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold a meeting of the mini-cabinet at this time to discuss recent developments on the Iranian and Lebanese fronts.

The channel stated: The current situation is clear: Trump is extending his hand... Americans want an agreement, but there is no one to conclude the agreement with.

It added: In Israel, it is understood that Iran is adamant about refusing to remove uranium from its territory and stop enrichment, thus Trump has two options: either to tighten the economic blockade or to move to a phase of military action, either limited or extensive.

Meanwhile, Channel 13 reported that the Israeli home front extended the enforcement of existing regulations without restrictions until Tuesday, despite warnings of a potential return to war.

It noted that in preparation for the possibility of a return to war, an American military airlift carrying shipments of bombs and missiles arrived in the area, including Israel, as translated by SadaNews.

Channel Reshet Kan mentioned that Trump may participate in negotiations between Lebanon and Israel tonight, which have been moved from the US State Department to the White House.

It indicated that with the ceasefire in both Iran and Lebanon nearing its end, Israel is discussing the possibility of resuming fighting on both fronts, which will be the focus of Netanyahu's meeting tonight.

It pointed out that Israel may be asked to withdraw from specific lines in Lebanon tonight, but Israel is not inclined to do so.
