Times Of Israel: IDF finding far more Russian arms in Hezbollah’s possession than expected – report
Israeli troops in southern Lebanon have discovered a significant amount of Russian weaponry in Hezbollah's possession, surpassing military estimates. Many of these arms were previously owned by the Syrian military, which has been supported by Russia. The presence of advanced weapons, including Kornet anti-tank missiles, enhances Hezbollah's capabilities against Israeli forces.
In response to the situation, Deputy Foreign Minister Sharren Haskel proposed transferring seized Russian-made weapons to Ukraine, aiming to bolster its military against threats while undermining Russian interests in the region. However, Israel has historically refrained from sending arms to Ukraine, and there is little indication that this policy will change.

Le Monde: France has become less attractive to foreign investors, report says

This hesitation could impact economic activity, as foreign-owned companies significantly contribute to France's GDP and employment. Meanwhile, the UK is regaining investor favor, posing a competitive threat to France's status as a prime location for business.
