U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Michel Issa revealed Tuesday that Washington will present a written paper to Speaker Nabih Berri regarding the so-called pilot zones in south Lebanon, where the Lebanese Army would take control from Israel's occupying forces.

Let Hezbollah chief Sheikh Naim Qasse "tell me what he wants. Does he want to fight? Let him go and fight; we've seen the results," President Joseph Aoun has said, according to his visitors.

The Israeli army on Tuesday said its forces killed a gunman who had managed to infiltrate Israeli territory from Lebanon and opened fire on its troops.

The Israeli army's withdrawal from south Lebanon would enable the Lebanese state to "extend its authority, end armed appearances and eliminate any justification for the persistence of weapons other than those of legitimate authorities and their armed forces," President Joseph Aoun said on Tuesday.

Israel's security cabinet has decided that any Hezbollah rocket on Israel will be met with an attack on Beirut's southern suburbs without the need for prior political approval, Israel's Channel 14 reported on Tuesday.

An Israeli airstrike on the southern city of Tyre before an Israeli military warning on Tuesday killed at least eight people and wounded 32 others.

The state-run National News Agency (NNA) had reported the strike not long before Israel's military issued an evacuation warning for the entire city and surrounding areas ahead of strikes there.

Israel's extremist National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has called for escalating measures against Lebanon, proposing the occupation of territory and "the arrest of women and young men," during a meeting of the security cabinet on Monday evening.

On Tuesday, President Joseph Aoun shared a segment of his recent CNN interview on social media, issuing a sharp warning to Iran against interfering in Lebanon's internal affairs.

Aoun said in the clip that Lebanon seeks good relations with Iran "based on mutual respect not interference."

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri only supports a complete and comprehensive ceasefire by land, sea, and air without any conditions, he told the WHYZ media platform.

After a ceasefire is reached, Hezbollah and Israel can withdraw in parallel from the area south of the Litani river, he said.

The Israeli army ordered Tuesday residents of the historic city of Tyre and its suburbs, including the city's Christian neighborhood, to evacuate ahead of expected strikes.

"Urgent warning to the residents of the city of Tyre, including the Christian quarter, and the camps and surrounding neighborhoods," read a message posted on X by the Israeli military's Arabic-language spokesman Avichay Adraee.
