Salah Al Din a ‘red line’ for Israel and Lebanese ex-bank chief charged

Trending Middle East brings you the latest social media and search trends from the region and around the world. Here are today’s headlines.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said withdrawing from the Salah Al Din corridor, also known as the Philadelphi corridor, would be a red line.
Mr Netanyahu pledged to remain in the area between Gaza and Egypt, stating that the October 7 attack provided his army with the “legitimacy” it sought to control the vital corridor. His stance contradicts what US officials have stated about Israel agreeing to remove troops from the Salah Al Din area and could be deal-breaker for a ceasefire in the enclave that could potentially free Israeli hostages held by Hamas.
Former Lebanese central bank governor Riad Salameh is facing embezzlement charges. The Lebanese judiciary has pressed charges of financial crimes against Mr Salameh.
He was arrested Tuesday. Mr Salameh is under investigation in Lebanon in two separate cases involving alleged embezzlement from the Lebanon central bank, Banque Du Liban.
At least four have been killed in a school shooting in the US state of Georgia. Two pupils, 14, and two teachers were killed at Apalachee High School. A 14-year-old has been arrested.
