U.S. Says Lebanon, Israel Agree on Ceasefire
Lebanon and Israel agreed to a ceasefire conditioned upon Hezbollah stopping all its operations and withdrawing its members from southern Lebanon. This agreement was reached during negotiations supervised by the United States and hosted in Washington. The two sides also agreed to establish pilot zones where the Lebanese army would control the territory without external interference by the state, in an effort to pave the way for a comprehensive peace agreement. Additionally, they agreed to enhance security cooperation to prevent the return of non-state armed groups. Emphasis was placed on the importance of respecting Lebanese sovereignty and the necessity of disarming Hezbollah. Negotiations are expected to continue until June 22 to finalize the understandings.
