November 3rd - According to Israeli media Kann, a security source confirmed that in recent days, Israel, through US mediation, has made a clear demand to the Lebanese government to redeploy the Lebanese army and establish checkpoints in areas inhabited by Hezbollah activists. Israel fears that if hostilities with Iran resume, the Shiite militia could open another front against Israel. Israel warned the Lebanese government that if Hezbollah joins the fighting under strong Iranian pressure, Israel will resume military operations in Lebanon, even though direct negotiations between Israel and Lebanon have been ongoing for months. Over the past three weeks, the Israeli Air Force has intensified its airstrikes in southern Lebanon, primarily targeting Hezbollah infrastructure in open areas. The Lebanese army has not yet deployed to these areas due to reasons including insufficient manpower, lack of willingness to operate, and possibly even inadequate capability. In fact, while making this clear demand to the Lebanese army, Israel is also destroying Hezbollah infrastructure itself, preparing for a possible resumption of hostilities with Iran.Irans First Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref: Iran does not trust any hegemon, and the message passed to Iran through intermediaries indicates that the other side has recognized Irans victory.UK Maritime Trade Operations Office: On November 1, a vessel was hit by a projectile near Oman.Sources say Oracles (ORCL.N) $1 billion stock offering was oversubscribed.On November 3, the Secretary General of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), Dominguez, stated in London on November 2 that the organization could not confirm whether mines had been cleared from the Strait of Hormuzs traffic separation zone, and that the safety of ship passage was not guaranteed.
