Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has informed former US President Donald Trump that Israel does not consider itself bound by the portion of the proposed US-Iran agreement related to Lebanon, Israeli sources said. Israel intends to retain its military presence in Lebanon, continue operations against Hezbollah, and respond to attacks as necessary, Maariv reports.

Former President Trump signals potential imminent Iran deal, though Tehran has yet to confirm. The agreement, expected to be signed digitally by Trump or Vice President J.D. Vance, includes Iran's committed abandonment of nuclear weapons and rapid reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Trump states there is no urgency to remove nuclear materials, suggesting a naval blockade may be more effective than strikes. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu expresses support for the deal, which also entails a ceasefire in Lebanon while reserving the right for Israeli retaliation if attacked — WSJ.

Following the signing of the agreement on Friday, the Strait has reopened, resuming bilateral oil flows and expected to benefit regional and global markets.
