Israeli attacks on Lebanon raise questions about the future of a fragile Iran-United States ceasefire as the US and Israel insist Lebanon is not included in the agreement.
Lebanon has declared a day of mourning after a wave of Israeli attacks killed at least 200 people and injured more than 1,000 in a single day on Wednesday.

Russia to evacuate more staff from Iran nuclear plant despite ceasefire
The head of Russia’s state nuclear giant Rosatom says the company hasn’t reversed its decision to evacuate its staff from Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant, despite the ceasefire.
“We are not cancelling the evacuation yet… it is not yet time to return our comrades there,” Alexei Likhachev, Rosatom’s CEO, told reporters.
“The situation remains unchanged. Of course, things have eased a bit since the ceasefire was announced. We don’t understand how this ceasefire will end, for obvious reasons,” he was quoted by the Russian Interfax news agency as saying.
Of 639 Rosatom staff originally at the plant, 611 have been evacuated via Armenia, with around 50 volunteers remaining on site.
Bushehr, Iran’s only functioning nuclear plant, built and staffed by Russia, has been struck four times since the US-Israel war on Iran began in February.

Global fuel shortage ‘mother of all crises’: Turkish energy minister
By Al Jazeera Staff
Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Alparslan Bayraktar, in an exclusive interview with Al Jazeera Arabic, discussed the effects of the crisis caused by Iran’s retaliatory blocking of the strait, calling the current global energy crisis “the mother of all crises”.
Bayraktar argued that thanks to Turkiye’s extensive investments in energy and infrastructure, its geographical location between Asia and Europe, and the presence of oil and natural gas reserves in its region, it has become a pivotal country in the region in the field of energy, especially as it harbours two key pipelines, the “Blue Stream” and the “TurkStream”.
The minister also suggested Ankara is well-suited to weather the crisis, as it has sufficient strategic energy reserves, with gas storage facilities that are 72 percent full, compared with Europe’s at just 28 percent.
