ALBAWABA- A potential ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon may soon be announced, according to sources cited by Reuters.
The Biden administration has reportedly informed Lebanese officials that a U.S.-sponsored truce could be finalized within hours.
Lebanese Deputy Speaker of Parliament revealed that the ceasefire agreement would be overseen by a five-nation committee headed by the United States.
The plan involves the withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon and the deployment of the Lebanese army within 60 days.
In a related incident, Israel’s cabinet is expected to convene on Tuesday to approve the agreement, according to senior Israeli officials.
Axios, citing U.S. and Israeli sources, reported that both sides have agreed in principle to the terms, aiming to end the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.
The United Nations has urged both parties to accept the ceasefire proposal.
However, the newly appointed Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar emphasized that the ultimate test will be ensuring Hezbollah’s withdrawal from the south of the Litani River and preventing its rearmament.
While political sources in Israel remain uncertain whether Hezbollah has abandoned its support for Gaza, the Lebanese Deputy Speaker of Parliament expressed optimism, stating that there are no significant obstacles to implementing the agreement.
The deal represents a critical step toward ending months of intense clashes, raising hopes for de-escalation in the region.
