Lebanese Twitter lit up on May 15, when the country held parliamentary elections.

The Biden administration is on the verge of announcing a new nuclear deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Amos Hochstein's confusion plays out before our eyes.

Israel and Iran remain rivals after decades of diplomatic and military conflicts, with Iran's nuclear program becoming a particularly large concern to Israel.

Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah disclosed Hezbollah's numbers in a speech Monday, days after seven people were killed amid the violence on the streets of Beirut.

"We're in the midst of a ticking time bomb," one Lebanese citizen who lives in Ein Rummaneh and witnessed the confrontation told Newsweek.

Authorities said it was the most protracted and violent street fighting in Beirut in years.

Hezbollah's decisions on the make-up of the new government have telegraphed the basic contours of the group's plan.

Last year, the UN General Assembly adopted 17 one-sided resolutions against Israel and only six against any of the other 192 member states.

Hours after Hezbollah said it secured a shipment of Iranian fuel, neighboring Syria reported that it was under attack by Israel.

Hassan Nasrallah, secretary-general of Hezbollah, said Joe Biden accepted the "historic failure" of Afghanistan so Americans weren't fighting for other nations.

In theory, UNIFIL's mission is to prevent Hezbollah from launching attacks against Israel from southern Lebanon, and to ensure the area is free of weapons.

Newsweek spoke with Hezbollah, the Israel Defense Forces and U.N. peacekeepers, who warned of "a very dangerous situation" unfolding as escalations worsen.

The U.S. can further honor the memories of Slim, al-Hashemi, Khashoggi and countless unknown activists by naming their murderers and holding them accountable.

Drones in the hands of terror groups like Hezbollah or Hamas, or other Iranian-backed groups like the Houthis, can spread havoc.

Biden should maintain and strengthen the broad U.S.-Israel diplomatic, military and intelligence relationship.

It's better to band together for mutual economic, political and security interests.

The only way to help Lebanon will be when the good people of Lebanon can rise up and finally divest themselves of Hezbollah.

Justice can't be fully served unless Hezbollah, which masterminded the 2012 bombing that killed six and injured dozens more, is held accountable by Bulgaria, the European Union and the global community.

An Iranian government spokesperson said the deal was made "in favor" of President Donald Trump's reelection.

UNIFIL has been an unmitigated failure. The Trump administration should veto its renewal.
