“Lebanon is a sovereign country and the territory of south of Lebanon is part of Lebanon,” Mr El Khoury said. It collapsed after Israel’s chaotic withdrawal in 2000, with thousands of SLA members fleeing across the border into Israel. To some Lebanese, the SLA protected Lebanon from Hezbollah and the PLO, which set up bases in the south after it was ejected from Jordan in 1970. Hezbollah has been able to build up large weapons supplies in south Lebanon that Israel says it is now intent on destroying. This week Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country would “continue to strike Hezbollah without mercy everywhere in Lebanon – including Beirut”.

JERUSALEM/CAIRO: Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, a mastermind of the Oct. 7, 2023, attack that triggered the Gaza war, has been killed by Israeli forces in the Palestinian enclave, Israel said on Thursday. The Israeli military said it had killed Sinwar in an operation in the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday. There was no immediate comment from Hamas, but sources in the militant group said that indications from Gaza suggested Sinwar had been killed in an Israeli operation. A ruthless enforcer once tasked with punishing Palestinians suspected of informing for Israel, Sinwar, who was born in 1962, made his name as a prison leader. Families of Israeli hostages said that while the killing of Sinwar was a significant achievement, it would not be complete while hostages are still in Gaza.

Israel launched air strikes on the Syrian coastal city of Latakia early on Thursday, Syrian authorities said, as it intensifies raids on areas under the control of President Bashar Al Assad alongside its campaign against his ally Hezbollah. Latakia is near the Alawite Mountains, the heartland of the Alawite minority religious sect that has dominated power in Syria since a 1963 coup. Mr Al Assad has a palace near Latakia and many Alawite officers who control the security apparatus come from there. Syrian media outlets opposed to the regime said the target of the raid was a Hezbollah weapons depot, and that it was destroyed. Maher Al Assad heads the army's Fourth Mechanised Division, which has been helping Hezbollah, they said.

Almost two-thirds (64%) say the country's economic conditions have worsened over the preceding 12 months, and only 42% expect things to improve during the coming year. Management of the economy tops the list of the most important problems that Ethiopians want their government to address. In May 2023, Ethiopia's year-on-year general inflation rate was 30.8% after hitting 33.5% in the previous month (Ethiopian Statistical Service, 2023). In light of these macroeconomic gains and challenges, how do ordinary Ethiopians assess their government's performance with regard to economic indicators? An overwhelming majority of citizens rate the government's performance as poor when it comes to keeping prices stable, narrowing gaps between rich and poor, creating jobs, and managing the economy.
