Netanyahu hails Lebanon deal as Hezbollah rejects agreement
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday hailed a US-brokered agreement with Lebanon as a blow to Iran and Hezbollah, while the militant group's leader, Naim Qassem, rejected the framework as "null and void".
The opposing stances underscored the uncertainty surrounding a deal intended to pave the way for peace and the disarmament of Hezbollah.
