Israel and Lebanon ceasefire talks

Ambassadors from both nations met with Secretary of State Marco Rubio to discuss the terms of the fragile truce.

Beirut is reportedly seeking a full withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon as a condition for any long-term agreement.

Despite the diplomatic progress, continued Israeli strikes and Hezbollah's opposition to the talks remain major obstacles.

President Trump hailed the extension as a positive step, though he warned that 'the clock is ticking' for a final deal.
