Israel-Lebanon Conflict: Ceasefire Talks Intensify Amid Renewed Violence

TL;DR Summary
An 18-year-old UN resolution, Resolution 1701, is being revisited as a potential framework for ending the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. The resolution, originally adopted to end the 2006 war, calls for the withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon and the deployment of Lebanese and UN peacekeeping forces. The U.S. is mediating a ceasefire proposal that emphasizes stricter enforcement of the resolution, but disagreements remain over military operations and border security.
