Secretary of State Marco Rubio accuses Hezbollah of stirring chaos in Lebanon, while Hezbollahs leader, Naim Qassem, criticizes U.S. sanctions on Al-Qard Al-Hassan, a financial institution providing loans to struggling communities. The U.S. vows not to tolerate Hezbollahs threats, as negotiations between the U.S. and Iran unfold, potentially ending the Israel-Hezbollah conflict. Meanwhile, Israel defends its right to self-defense, and Hezbollah urges Lebanon to avoid direct talks with Israel, as tensions remain high with ongoing military exchanges.
