Lebanon Braces as Israeli Strikes Persist Amid US-Iran Peace Talks

Israeli strikes across southern and eastern Lebanon continued Sunday, killing 11 in Sir al-Gharbiyeh and hitting Nabatieh, Zawtar al-Sharqiyah, and a civil-defence facility as evacuation warnings were issued, despite a ceasefire in the Israel-Hezbollah war. Hezbollah remains engaged with Israel as regional tensions mount amid signs of a near US-Iran peace deal that could include Lebanon, while Lebanon and Israel press direct talks under US mediation and Israeli forces stay inside a declared border line.

"Five Americans to be Freed in High-Stakes Prisoner Swap with Iran"

Five Americans who have been imprisoned in Iran are expected to be released on Monday as part of a wider US-Iran deal. The release comes after years of complicated indirect negotiations between Washington and Tehran. Under the agreement, $6 billion in Iranian funds held in restricted accounts in South Korea will be transferred to restricted accounts in banks in Qatar. The funds, derived from oil sales, will only be used by Iran for humanitarian purchases and will be monitored by the US Treasury Department. The deal also involves the release of five Iranians in US custody.
