Last update: 6 hours agoIsrael-Lebanon Framework: Israel and Lebanon signed a US-backed 14-point framework in Washington aimed at “lasting peace and security,” including a phased IDF pullback from two southern “pilot zones,” Lebanese Armed Forces taking over security, and “complete and verified disarmament” of non-state armed groups, with the US setting up a Military Coordination Group and pledging $100m in humanitarian aid. Hezbollah Rejects: Hezbollah leaders and lawmakers immediately vowed to resist implementation and keep weapons, warning the deal could spark “civil war,” while Israel’s Netanyahu said troops will stay in a southern “security zone” until Hezbollah disarms. Lebanon Politics & Protests: Lebanese President Joseph Aoun hailed the accord as the start of restoring full sovereignty and enabling displaced people to return, but protests erupted in Beirut and Dahiyeh with supporters denouncing the agreement as a threat to sovereignty. Implementation Friction on the Ground: Even as the deal was announced, reports said Israeli forces carried out sweeps and bombings in southern villages after abductions, underscoring how fragile the ceasefire remains. Regional Pressure: The signing came amid US strikes on Iran over Strait of Hormuz incidents and Iran’s retaliatory attacks, raising fears the broader conflict could derail border talks.
