Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated his desire to achieve peace with Lebanon, promising peace following the elimination of Hezbollah and the overthrow of the Iranian regime. Speaking at the opening of the academic year at Tel Hai University in Kiryat Shmona, northern Israel, he declared: “We are determined to carry out the elimination of the Iranian regime. I have discussed this with President Trump. Simultaneously, the elimination of Hezbollah will take place, as will peace with Lebanon.”

READ MORE FROM TUESDAY ‘Not a single gram’ of enriched uranium will be removed from Iran, says Iranian NSC Secretary Iran will not negotiate with the US until Washington takes trust-building steps and meets Tehran’s conditions, Iran’s top security official Mohsen Rezaei told Pakistani army chief Asim Munir in Tehran, according to Iranian state media. Rezaei, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, wrote on X: “Not a single gram of enriched uranium will be removed from Iran.

There will be no negotiations until the United States takes steps to build trust. That process must begin with the full fulfillment of all Iran’s conditions.” Rezaei also told Munir that Iran will not send “even a single particle” of its enriched nuclear material out of the country, calling it a national asset meant for use inside Iran. The remarks came hours after a Qatari-owned outlet reported that Munir was carrying a Qatari-Pakistani compromise proposal with US approval and earlier Iranian consent.

About this analysis

i24News reports, in a live blog, Netanyahu's stated aim of eliminating Iran's government and Hezbollah, Hegseth's visit to Israel, and Iranian security chief Mohsen Rezaei's refusal to send enriched uranium abroad. Each claim is attributed to the person or outlet who made it, and the headline matches Rezaei's own words in the body. Nothing in it misleads the reader.

What it gets right

  • ““We are determined to carry out the elimination of the Iranian regime.”

    The outlet quotes Netanyahu's own words, so the reader sees directly that Israel's prime minister is stating an aim to bring down another country's government. The term 'regime' stays inside his quotation.

  • “calling it a national asset meant for use inside Iran”

    The outlet gives Rezaei's own reason for keeping the enriched material in the country. It does not present his refusal as bare defiance.

  • “a Qatari-owned outlet reported that Munir was carrying a Qatari-Pakistani compromise proposal with US approval and earlier Iranian consent”

    The outlet places Rezaei's remarks against the reported mediation effort and marks that report as another outlet's claim.
