Israel Maintains Operations in Southern Lebanon

Israeli forces continue to operate in southern Lebanon despite a fragile ceasefire, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu asserting full freedom of action.

New negotiations between Israel and Lebanon have begun in Washington, while Beirut seeks to keep control over the post-war situation and Hezbollah defers to Tehran.

Israeli fire killed one person in south Lebanon, according to state media, and the ceasefire remains tenuous.

The situation is a key component of the broader US-Iran talks.
