Lebanon Not Demanding Pullback of Israeli Forces Before Next Round of Talks |
As Lebanon seems increasingly willing to take decisive steps against Hezbollah. Isreal Hayom: The next meeting between Israel and Lebanon will most likely take place as early as next week in Washington, according to Israeli and American diplomatic sources. Under that framework, the second meeting will map out the issues for discussion, chiefly border demarcation and the economic and civilian aspects of a possible agreement. The issue of Hezbollah and its disarmament is only supposed to come up as a point of reference, but discussion of it is taking place at the highest political level…. The IDF will not withdraw from the area, and notably Lebanon did not demand that, at least not immediately. Israel is linking Hezbollah’s disarmament, as set out in the November 2024 agreement, to an Israeli military withdrawal and a full ceasefire. That means the IDF will continue operating against Hezbollah targets that pose an immediate threat, including deep inside Lebanese territory, and will have complete freedom of action in the area south of the Litani River (Israel Hayom). |
