Tension in the White House over policy toward Iran
According to a report in the Israel Hayom newspaper, widely cited by قناة الميادين | عاجل, there is a "sharp dispute within the White House" regarding Iran. The report argues that President Trump approved the continuation of contacts with Tehran, despite the opposition of "senior administration officials."
As part of the internal disagreements, it is claimed that Vice President Vance and his operatives are pushing for a preliminary agreement, while the American Secretaries of Defense and State are demanding "military escalation" according to information published on Mayadeen. At the same time, the أخبار فلسطين العاجلة 24 network notes that "all indications confirm that the war in Iran will resume," attributing to President Trump an intention to create a "victory image" to divert attention from internal frustration in the US.
At the regional level, قناة المיאדין reports that while Netanyahu and the leaders of the United Arab Emirates expressed support for a "firm stance" against Iran, Saudi Arabia and Qatar prefer to avoid escalation.
International condemnations and the continuation of fighting in Gaza
Alongside the reports on Iran, international criticism of the conduct of Minister Itamar Ben Gvir is growing. The النبطية حاضرة جבל عامل channel reports sharp responses from the President of the European Council and the Australian Foreign Minister, who expressed "shock" at the treatment of the "Resilience Flotilla" activists.
The report cites the 'Haaretz' newspaper, which sharply criticizes Minister Ben Gvir and describes Israel as acting like the "neighborhood bully" in Lebanon, the West Bank, and Gaza. In parallel to the diplomatic arena, it was reported that the Israeli occupation army continues "house demolition operations" in eastern Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip.
