Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire Hopes

Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire Hopes

The upcoming meeting follows a high-level face-to-face negotiation in Washington, the first such direct dialogue between the two countries in over three decades.

While Prime Minister Netanyahu continues to order strikes on Hezbollah strongholds, Lebanese officials say a deal is 'soon' to be finalized.

The proposed ceasefire would focus on disarming militant groups and establishing a sustainable peace along the border.

However, the situation remains fragile, with Hezbollah claiming dozens of recent attacks on Israeli targets and the UN warning of a 'humanitarian catastrophe' in southern Lebanon.
