Israel and Hezbollah Agree to Ceasefire, Aiming to End Lebanon Conflict

Israel has announced a cease-fire plan with Hezbollah in Lebanon, marking a significant step towards preventing a broader regional conflict. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated the cease-fire aims to shift focus to threats from Hamas and Iran. The deal, brokered by the U.S. and France, is expected to be approved by both Israeli and Lebanese governments, though Hezbollah remains cautious. This agreement is seen as crucial for broader peace efforts in the Middle East, particularly in light of recent escalations between Israel and Iran.
