In Lebanon, Israel continued its deadly strikes on Thursday, May 28, even as the Israeli army expanded its "combat zone" against the pro-Iranian Hezbollah, despite a ceasefire theoretically in effect since April 17. This Friday, May 29, the security component of negotiations between Israel and Lebanon opens in Washington. On the negotiation front, a memorandum of understanding to extend their ceasefire and lift restrictions on navigation in the Strait of Hormuz appears to be taking shape between the United States and Iran, without Donald Trump having yet validated it.
