In one hour Lebanon-Israel will sign another “framework agreement” in the presence of the U.S. Secretary of State.

Additional indication of UAE involvement in the Libyan conflict as well as the Sudanese Civil War is growing more evident.

A FlyPro Boeing 747 departed Dubai at approximately 4:40 UTC on Thursday, en route to Tobruk. This cargo transport was most likely loaded with military equipment and ammunition.

Tobruk is the de-facto capital of the House of Representatives, backed by Khaled Haftar, a warlord aligned with the UAE, Egypt, & Russia.

According to thorough investigations by WSJ & non-profit organizations like Human Rights Watch, the UAE is supplying the RSF with military equipment & ammunition through eastern Libya & Chad.

A rise in UAE cargo deliveries to eastern Libya is expected following the end of the Iran-US/Israeli hostilities.

Lebanon now practically recognizes the State of Israel without formally doing so.

— 🇦🇪🇹🇩: An unidentified Boeing 747-409F cargo aircraft is tracking from N'Djamena, Chad across South Sudan toward the Gulf of Aden, with its registration and destination unavailable on Flightradar24.

The aircraft appears to be following a corridor commonly monitored by OSINT researchers due to recurring cargo flights linking the Gulf region with central Africa.

This aircraft was last tracked going to Nevatim Airbase in the occupied Palestinian territories from the UAE.

China–Syria Trade (2024–2026)

2024: ~$386M Chinese exports
2025: ~$668M (+73% growth)
2026 (projection): ~$900M–$1.1B

A large share is electricity and infrastructure-related goods:

- cables, transformers, grid equipment
- generators and backup power systems
- some solar and energy
- storage components

These are directly aimed at fixing Syria’s severe power shortages, which are a major constraint on recovery.

It signals rising real commercial activity and economic reopening, not just trade on paper.

Electricity-related imports can unlock broader economic recovery (industry, services, agriculture).

This is still mainly imports into Syria (not exports or domestic production growth), so long-term recovery depends on rebuilding local industry and investment, not just equipment inflows.

@Mena_Live

- Electricity grids and supply lines in Aleppo and Damascus are using mainly Chinese components.

- China is also supplying Syria (with some already active in Aleppo) high-voltage transformers.

- Chinese electricity components are seen as reliable, low-cost, and quickly delivered, top-tier Chinese firms meet international standards.

Hezbollah Secretary General Naim Qassem: The framework agreement between Israel and Lebanon is invalid.

It should be replaced and instead the memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran should be implemented.

@Mena_Live

Naim Qassem:

This agreement is null and void, and the terms of understanding between Iran and the U.S. must be implemented.

This organization legitimizes the continuation of the occupation for many years, which could lead to the annexation of these areas to the Zionist regime.

The link between Israel's withdrawal and the disarmament of the resistance is a very dangerous proposal that crosses all red lines.

We say to the Lebanese authorities: it is time to stop the actions that are destroying Lebanon.

Leak, Netanyahu during cabinet session with his ministers against the backdrop of the American desire to sell engines to Turkey for fighter jets and the F35 jet:

"Almost a day does not pass that Erdogan does not call for the destruction of the State of Israel - we take these words very seriously, because if we have learned one thing in the history of our people - when someone says they intend to destroy you, take them seriously. We take these things seriously, and we will also draw the attention of our American friends to these statements. We do not ignore them."
