Middle East

After months of negotiations in Vienna, superpowers and Iran indicate a new agreement is close.

A new assessment by Alma Center finds that Hezbollah’s advanced conventional weapons arsenal includes cruise missiles, at least 2,000 drones.

"By using unmanned systems, we can just simply see more. They’re high-reliability and remove the human factor," says Vice Adm. Brad Cooper, who leads the Bahrain-based Fifth Fleet.

Prime minister says renegotiated agreement would see Iran rein in its nuclear activity for two and a half years, rather than the 10 years under the previous agreement.

Lawmakers insist that US and European parties should guarantee that they would not exit a restored agreement, nor trigger the "snapback mechanism" under which sanctions on Tehran would be immediately reinstated if it violates nuclear compliance.

Hassan Nasrallah says that with Tehran's help, the Shiite terrorist group can produce drones, turn rockets into precision missiles.

Hassan Nasrallah rarely leaves his bunker in Beirut, let alone Lebanon. The visit, which reportedly took place in late 2021, included meetings with senior IRGC officials and focused on a potential Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.

Normalization is in Jerusalem's interest but it must play hard to get, two former senior Israeli officials say.

French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian tells parliament breakthrough depends on Iran.
