LIVE: IRGC Hezbollah Reject Ceasefire - IDF Launch Strikes - Trump Says NO 'Iran Deal'

Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem and IRGC Quds Forces head Esmail Qaani both rejected the US-backed ceasefire proposal. Qassem demanded a full Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and stated Hezbollah would not disarm, calling any peace deal 'Satan's dream in heaven.' Qaani affirmed support for 'resistance' and the goal of 'eliminating Israel.'

Naim Qassem stated, 'any acceptable deal to end the war... will have to include a full Israeli withdrawal from the whole of the Lebanese territory.' Esmail Qaani said, 'eliminating Israel from the region is an achievable goal for Muslims.'

Following the rejection of the ceasefire and continued Hezbollah attacks, the Israeli Defense Forces launched extensive air strikes in southern Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah facilities. The IDF issued warnings for civilians to evacuate areas south of the Zahrani River, indicating continued operations.

Former President Trump, when asked to define a ceasefire in the Middle East, humorously and cynically stated it means 'when you're shooting in a more moderate manner,' implying that complete cessation of hostilities is unrealistic in the region.

President Trump's response: 'Uh pretty much the way it is. It's a different part of the world. You know, I'd say in that part of the world, ceasefire is when you're shooting in a more moderate manner.'

Hezbollah accidentally hit a United Nations post near Debbin in southern Lebanon, killing one UN peacekeeper and injuring two others. The host notes a perceived lack of outrage from legacy media and Western governments compared to hypothetical Israeli actions.

The IRGC is experiencing significant financial pressure due to the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and internal infighting and division within Iran. This situation puts them in a losing position, forcing them to seek a way out.

The IRGC is 'getting suffocated financially because don't forget the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is still going on and they are losing money every single day.' The host adds, 'there's a massive infighting and division. The country's still basically a wartime.'
