Fuxin Technology said on June 28 that an online article purporting to be the full text of sales executive Zhou Zhiqi’s speech is fabricated and does not represent the company. Zhou’s presentation at the CFCF2026 Optical Connectivity Conference on June 27 in Suzhou, titled Breaking the Deadlock and Reshaping: Micro-TEC Domesticization Wave, only described company products and technology. The company said its Micro-TEC products use bismuth telluride materials that do not require 6N-grade or higher

On the 27th, Israeli national security minister Itamar Ben-Gvir said the US-mediated Israel-Lebanon framework agreement is "a major mistake" and demanded Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu formally submit the deal to cabinet for a vote. Ben-Gvir said the Lebanese government will not genuinely disarm Hezbollah and that only the Israel Defense Forces can do so.

NETANYAHU said at a March 27 press conference the framework agreement with Lebanon is a "historic achievement" that advances ending the bilateral conflict and could lead to a final peace. He said the deal is a major blow to Iran and Hezbollah. The agreement, he said, reflects US and Lebanese assent for Israel to retain a security zone inside Lebanon for a period "as needed" — until Hezbollah and other armed groups are disarmed and Lebanon no longer poses a threat to Israel. As a pilot to hand territory to the Lebanese army and remove Hezbollah control, Israel will withdraw from two small currently held areas: one entirely outside the security zone and one at its edge that Israeli forces no longer need. NETANYAHU said Israel effectively retains all security-zone depth required to defend its northern border.
