US-facilitated Israel-Lebanon talks have begun, says State Department

Delegations are discussing phased Israeli withdrawals, Lebanese army deployment and expanded pilot zones as Hezbollah rejects the US-backed process.

  • On Wednesday, the Israeli military began targeted strikes in southern Lebanon, citing a "Hezbollah violation" one day after U.S.-facilitated talks between Israel and Lebanon concluded in Rome.
  • Earlier today, the Israeli military issued an evacuation warning for Mansouri to target the Iran-backed group, prompting around 15 civilian families to flee the village near the Yellow Line.
  • In the village of Tibnin, the NNA reported one person killed and 11 wounded in an Israeli drone strike, while AFP stated the strike "targeted the roof of a prayer area of the cemetery."
  • The NNA also reported an explosion and fire in woods near Kfarshouba, with several people taken to hospital following the drone strike.
  • Despite a June 26 security arrangement intended to ease border hostilities, Israel maintains a security zone in southern Lebanon to eliminate Hezbollah, while some Lebanese farmers continue accessing fields.
