Conflicting Reports Emerge on Israel-Lebanon Ceasefire Progress
Despite the ongoing conflict in Lebanon that has resulted in thousands of deaths and displaced millions, internal political disagreements among Lebanese factions hinder any potential cease-fire agreement with Israel. Even if Israel were to propose a unilateral cease-fire, the lack of a unified Lebanese political front renders such an offer ineffective. Meanwhile, President-elect Donald Trump has expressed interest in resolving the situation, urging U.S. envoy Amos Hochstein to negotiate a deal with Lebanon.
