Lebanon Must Get Ready as Israel and Turkey Battle for Influence in the Levant
Last week, Israeli aircraft bombed the Abu Al Duhur air base in Syria. The Israelis initially failed to admit responsibility for the attack, but to a number of observers it was very reminiscent of the attacks in April last year against the Hama and T4 air bases. At the time, these were interpreted as an Israeli effort to prevent the Turkish military from using the bases, amid the rising regional rivalry between Israel and Turkey.

Only the Lebanese People Can Make Hezbollah Disarm
The impasse in Lebanon is about Hezbollah’s weapons, and for that there is no military solution, either by Israel or through the Lebanese Armed Forces. External support and external factors will always be important, but it is ultimately an internal matter among the Lebanese. The definitive test of the Lebanese political system is whether it can resolve this politically. The challenge is whether Hezbollah can to be convinced to give up its arms and connections with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and voluntarily join the Taif agreement that ended the civil war in 1989. Otherwise, the peace talks with Israel will go nowhere and the scenarios for everyone in the region are too horrible to imagine.

UAE Says Suspects Drones Behind Abu Dhabi Fires, Yemen's Houthis Claim Attack
Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement said on Monday it had carried out an attack on the United Arab Emirates after authorities in the Gulf state reported two fires in the capital Abu Dhabi that were possibly caused by drones.
Abu Dhabi police, in a statement on state news agency WAM, said three fuel tankers had exploded in the industrial Musaffah area near storage facilities of oil firm ADNOC and that a fire had broken out at a construction site at Abu Dhabi International Airport.
There was no damage from the incidents, the statement said, adding that initial investigations showed parts of a small plane "possibly a drone" in both sites.
