Lebanon’s future is at the center of a major diplomatic push as President Joseph Aoun meets French President Emmanuel Macron and Jordan’s King Abdullah II in Paris. The talks come as Israel and Lebanon explore a possible security framework, including what could eventually replace UNIFIL in southern Lebanon.In this episode of the Israel Daily News Podcast, Shana Fuld breaks down the history behind the Israel-Lebanon conflict and explains why UNIFIL has remained in southern Lebanon for nearly 50 years.The discussion covers the origins of UNIFIL, the PLO’s presence in southern Lebanon, Israel’s 1978 and 1982 operations, Hezbollah’s emergence, and the aftermath of the Second Lebanon War.Shana also explains the current proposal being discussed: Israeli forces could withdraw as the Lebanese military moves into southern Lebanon and Hezbollah is disarmed. But Israel says the Lebanese army must prove it can actually remove Hezbollah from the area before an Israeli withdrawal can take place.The episode also covers:🇱🇧 Joseph Aoun’s meeting with Macron and King Abdullah II🇮🇱 Israel-Lebanon security talks🇺🇳 The future of UNIFILHezbollah’s refusal to disarmThe history of the 1948 Arab-Israeli WarIsrael’s peace treaties with Egypt and JordanThe evolving situation on Israel’s Syrian and Lebanese borders🇵🇸 The IDF confirmation of the death of Hamas Rafah Brigade commander Nael Abu ObeidIsrael’s upcoming October 27 electionPolitical disqualification petitions before the electionAn IDF inquiry into a controversial Gaza documentary🇲🇦 Israel and Morocco upgrading diplomatic relations to full embassiesThe Abraham Accords and expanding regional tiesRosh Hashanah and the upcoming Yom Kippur holidaySupport independent journalism from Israel:Israel Daily News website: https://israeldailynews.orgYouTube: https://youtube.com/@israeldailynewsIsrael Daily News Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/shannafuldSupport our Wartime News Coverage: https://israeldailynews.org/donation-box/Links to all things IDN: https://linktr.ee/israeldailynewsTimestamps00:00 Aoun Meets Macron Over Lebanon’s Future01:00 How UNIFIL Began in Southern Lebanon02:00 Israel’s 1978 Operation & UNIFIL03:00 Israel’s 1982 Lebanon War04:00 Why UNIFIL Has Remained for Nearly 50 Years05:00 Israel-Lebanon Talks in Washington06:00 Hezbollah Must Disarm Before Israeli Withdrawal07:00 The 1948 Arab-Israeli War Begins08:00 The Nakba & Israel’s Independence09:00 Israel’s Peace Treaties With Egypt & Jordan10:00 Syria, Lebanon & Israel’s Other Borders11:00 Hamas Rafah Commander Killed12:00 Election Disqualification Battles Begin13:00 High Court & Political Party Bans14:00 IDF Orders Inquiry Into Gaza Documentary15:00 Support Israel Daily News16:00 Military Investigation & Classified Information17:00 Israel & Morocco Upgrade Diplomatic Ties18:00 Abraham Accords Anniversary19:00 Yom Kippur Programming Announcement20:00 Rosh Hashanah, Pomegranates & Israeli Tradition21:00 Israeli Artisans & Holiday Gifts22:00 Tel Aviv Weather & Daily Wrap-Up23:00 Shabbat Shalom & Gmar Chatima Tova#Israel #IsraelDailyNews #IsraelLebanon #Lebanon #Hezbollah #UNIFIL #IDF #Gaza #Hamas #IsraelNews #MiddleEast #JosephAoun #EmmanuelMacron #AbrahamAccords #IsraelPolitics #RoshHashanah #YomKippur #ShannaFuld Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Iranian pressure, the Strait of Hormuz, Houthi attacks, Israel's political tensions, Fauda's depiction of October 7, and a powerful Rosh Hashanah story from a freed hostage.On today's episode of the Israel Daily News Podcast, Shanna Fuld brings you the latest developments across Israel and the Middle East.Iran is accusing the United States and Austria of blocking its nuclear delegation from attending the International Atomic Energy Agency conference in Vienna, as the diplomatic relationship between Washington and Tehran remains deeply strained.We also look at reports of Chinese intelligence sharing with Iran ahead of an Iranian missile strike on a U.S. base in Jordan, as President Trump prepares to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping at the White House.In Gaza, President Trump says Hamas is willing to give up its weapons, while Israel continues to insist that Hamas must disarm. The ceasefire remains fragile, with Israel and Hamas offering competing accounts of the situation on the ground.Meanwhile, Iran-backed Houthi forces continue attacking Saudi Arabia. With the Houthis controlling key territory along Yemen's Red Sea coast and shipping through the Strait of Hormuz dramatically reduced, the security of regional energy and shipping routes remains a major concern.We also examine the Israeli political debate over whether Arab-majority parties Ra'am and the Joint List should be barred from running in the upcoming October 27 election, including the legal history surrounding previous attempts to disqualify political parties.Then, a major cultural story: the fifth season of Fauda has drawn international attention for its dramatization of the October 7 massacre. The episodes have sparked strong reactions from viewers around the world, while the series' Israeli cast and production team have personal connections to the war.And we end with a powerful Rosh Hashanah story.Israel has reached its first Rosh Hashanah since October 7, 2023 without a hostage remaining in Gaza. Freed hostage Matan Angrest, who spent 738 days in Hamas captivity, returned home from a five-month trip through South America so he could celebrate the holiday with his family.His story is a reminder of what freedom means after years of captivity—and why being together with family during the holidays can carry a significance that is difficult to put into words.In this episode:Iran's dispute with the IAEA and AustriaU.S.-Iran tensions and China's alleged intelligence connectionTrump's Gaza ceasefire effortsIsrael's position on Hamas disarmamentRa'am, the Joint List and Israel's upcoming electionHouthi attacks on Saudi ArabiaThe Strait of Hormuz shipping crisisIsrael's political debate over party disqualificationsFauda's October 7 episodesRosh Hashanah and the return of freed hostage Matan AngrestSubscribe to Israel Daily News for independent reporting and analysis from Israel.📩 Sign up for the Israel Weekly News: israeldailynews.org❤️ Support independent journalism: Your contributions help keep Israel Daily News reporting independently from Israel.Israel Daily News website: https://israeldailynews.orgYouTube: https://youtube.com/@israeldailynewsIsrael Daily News Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/shannafuldSupport our Wartime News Coverage: https://israeldailynews.org/donation-box/Links to all things IDN: https://linktr.ee/israeldailynewsTimestamps00:00 Iran Blocked From IAEA Conference Amid U.S. Pressure01:00 Trump, China & the Upcoming Xi Jinping Summit02:00 Trump Says Hamas May Give Up Its Weapons03:00 Israel, Hamas & the Gaza Ceasefire04:00 Could Ra'am and the Joint List Be Banned?05:00 Israel's High Court & Political Party Bans06:00 Houthi Attacks Target Saudi Arabia07:00 Houthis Take Control of Yemen's Red Sea Coast08:00 Strait of Hormuz Shipping Collapses09:00 Controversial Gaza Film Sparks Israeli Backlash10:00 IDF Rejects Allegations in the Film11:00 Fauda Season 5 Depicts October 712:00 How Fauda Portrays the October 7 Massacre13:00 Israel's First Rosh Hashanah Without Hostages in
