Israel authorizes Lebanon peace talks

While Netanyahu has greenlit the talks, he emphasized that there is currently 'no ceasefire in Lebanon' and that military operations will continue until security is restored to northern Israel.

Lebanese officials have responded by stating that meaningful negotiations cannot occur while the country remains under fire.

The worst day of bombardment in the war recently killed over 300 people in Lebanon, highlighting the volatility of the situation.

The upcoming summit in Washington aims to address the disarmament of Hezbollah and establish formal relations between the neighboring states.
