Second French UNIFIL Soldier Dies; IDF Strike Wounds Journalists in Southern Lebanon
Since the prior SITREP, a second French UNIFIL soldier has died of wounds sustained in last week's Hezbollah attack on UN peacekeepers, and an IDF strike in southern Lebanon wounded journalists at the at-Tiri/Tayri site — with the Papal Ambassador's convoy, UNIFIL, the Lebanese Army, and the Red Cross now present at the scene. The White House has clarified that Trump set no specific deadline for the Iran ceasefire extension, and CENTCOM confirmed it ordered 29 vessels to turn back in the past 24 hours under the Iran naval blockade.

Second French UNIFIL Soldier Dies; IRGC Hormuz Blockade Confirmed Kinetic
Since the prior SITREP, a second French UNIFIL peacekeeper has died from wounds sustained in a weekend Hezbollah ambush, confirmed by President Macron — the most significant new development on the Lebanon front. Separately, the IRGC's Strait of Hormuz blockade is now confirmed kinetic, with Iran International SITREP reporting fire on three vessels and seizure of two foreign ships, while Trump has narrowed the US-Iran ceasefire extension to 3–5 days and signalled a second round of talks could occur within 36–72 hours.

Trump Extends Iran Ceasefire Indefinitely; Blockade Holds, Hezbollah Strikes North
Trump announced an open-ended ceasefire extension hours before the Wednesday deadline, conditioned on Iran producing a 'unified proposal,' while explicitly maintaining the naval blockade of Hormuz. Simultaneously, Hezbollah launched rockets and drones at an IDF position in Kfar Giladi — the first confirmed kinetic exchange on the Lebanon front since the prior SITREP — and the US issued fresh sanctions on 14 Iran-linked arms entities.

Iran Absent From Islamabad as Ceasefire Expiry Looms Wednesday
Iran's state media denies any delegation has departed for Islamabad while a Pakistani diplomatic source claims a preliminary Iranian delegation has arrived, creating unresolved ambiguity over whether Tuesday talks are alive as the ceasefire expires Wednesday. The IEA has declared the Hormuz closure the worst energy crisis in history, a Mossad officer was killed outside Israel during the war, and Israeli forces are escalating demolitions in southern Lebanon under ceasefire cover.

The US Navy seized the Iranian cargo vessel MV Touska in the Sea of Oman/Strait of Hormuz area, prompting the IRGC to threaten retaliation and Iran's Foreign Ministry to accuse Washington of ceasefire violations. Simultaneously, Iran has not confirmed participation in the next round of US-Iran talks in Islamabad despite Vance's arrival in Pakistan, placing the diplomatic track in acute uncertainty.
