President of Serbia Aleksandar Vučić:

"Serbia plans to produce attack drones together with Israel. We will do it together, 50-50, and we will have the best drones in the region. Serbia alone cannot produce drones like Israel."

Italy announced that it will stop the automatic renewal of the defense agreement with Israel.

Israeli Foreign Ministry response:

There is no "security agreement" between us; it is an old memorandum of understanding that had no real significance.

Former Lebanese judge, Peter Jermanos:

"Hezbollah is asking the Lebanese state to intervene to ensure a safe exit route for hundreds of Hezbollah operatives besieged in Bint Jbeil."

Mossad Chief Barnea:

"Our commitment will only be fulfilled when the extreme regime in Iran is replaced.

We did not think the mission would be completed immediately after the fighting subsides, but we also planned that our campaign would continue and be expressed even in the period following the attacks in Tehran."

Defense Minister Katz: "The US and Israel have defined the removal of enriched material from Iran as a threshold condition for ending the campaign"

Speaking earlier tonight on Fox News, U.S. Vice President JD Vance presented a more optimistic and positive view of this past weekend’s peace talks with Iran in Islamabad then he gave on Sunday, stating that while “things went wrong,” they also “went right” during the negotiations and that progress was made with Iran.

Vance added that, “We made a lot of progress, but we also made very clear, and I think this is part of the progress we made, what the terms where the United States could make some accommodation, what terms we were flexible on, and what things we absolutely needed to see in order for the President of the United States to feel like he was getting a good deal.”

U.S. Vice President JD Vance, who considers himself a devout Catholic, was asked earlier about the administration’s recent public conflict with The Vatican and Pope Leo XIV, as well as last night’s picture posted by President Trump depicting himself as Jesus Christ. Vance responded that he thinks the picture was a “joke” by the President, and that The Vatican should stick to matters of “morality and the Catholic Church” and not the policy of the United States.

Adm. Brad Cooper, the Commander of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), has once again arrived in Israel for meetings with Israeli Chief of General Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir and other senior military officials, following so far unsuccessful peace talks with Iran, and the expiration of the current ceasefire on April 21, 2026. While meeting today, Cooper and Zamir were joined by Holocaust survivor Bella Haim in commemoration of Holocaust Remembrance Day.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio:

The Lebanese people are victims of Iranian aggression, and this must stop.

This is a historic meeting, and we hope to build on it. Senior officials are participating here who will be able to take the matters back to their capitals.

This is a process, not a one-time event. It will take time - but we believe it is worth the effort.

The hope is to lay the foundations today for a permanent and stable peace agreement.

After 43 years: direct talks between Israel and Lebanon.
