Israel-Lebanon ceasefire talks

Israel-Lebanon ceasefire talks

The Israeli security cabinet met on Wednesday to discuss a potential one-week truce that could serve as a precursor to a broader peace deal.

While the military continues to strike Hezbollah strongholds in southern Lebanon, Prime Minister Netanyahu is facing significant domestic and international pressure to end the hostilities.

Lebanese officials have expressed hope that an agreement can be reached 'soon,' which could also help stabilize regional oil markets.

The talks follow a high-level meeting in Washington that was brokered by the Trump administration.
