Increase in the number of damaged oil tankers in the Sea of Oman area

Public Relations of the Navy of the Army:

🔹 This afternoon, surveillance teams of the Army Navy, constantly monitoring the eastern Strait of Hormuz, discovered a violating oil tanker that had caught fire and stopped moving in the Sea of Oman area.

🔹 In recent days, a number of violating oil tankers that caught fire while attempting to pass through prohibited areas without keeping electronic equipment switched on were also reported by the valiant men of the Army and the IRGC.

🔹 We have full control and intelligence dominance over the eastern Strait of Hormuz, the Arabian Sea, and the Sea of Oman, and are aware of the dangers of traffic in prohibited areas. Despite the propaganda of the criminal president of America, the Strait of Hormuz is not open, and countries must not be deceived by these lies.

Peace with Israel: A Lebanese Illusion?

Israel's new security doctrine treats war as permanent and peace as temporary, undermining Lebanese assumptions that a deal would bring withdrawal. Unlike the Camp David and Wadi Araba treaties, when Israeli leaders saw peace as strategic, today's regime views conflict as a managed condition. Lebanese advocates of peace rely on outdated thinking. Before offering concessions, Lebanon must ask whether Israel still values peace at all. The framework agreement's logic is fundamentally flawed.
