Lebanon Pushes for Ceasefire and Zone Expansion
The direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel resumed in Rome under American sponsorship, aiming to implement the framework agreement signed in June. The goal is to expand the experimental zones, facilitate successive Israeli withdrawals from southern Lebanon to strengthen the presence of the Lebanese army, and enable the return of displaced persons. The negotiations reaffirmed the necessity of establishing a ceasefire and halting the destruction and bulldozing operations carried out by Israel. Lebanon proposed the regions of Bint Jbeil and Khiyam as new models, along with an alternative plan suggesting other areas within the occupied zones. For the first time, Israel engaged in discussions regarding the land border issue, focusing on implementing withdrawals. The parties continue to deliberate on implementation matters and comprehensive settlement strategies, amid American warnings against rushing and emphasizing the importance of completing effective work before moving on to subsequent stages.
