Two senior Lebanese officials informed Reuters that discussions are taking place about initiating a ceasefire in Lebanon. However, they have not been provided with details on the timeline or its expected duration.
Both officials speculated that the ceasefire's length could be connected to the stability of the current truce between the United States and Iran.
One official revealed that the U.S. government has been urging Israel, especially in recent talks in Washington, to work towards a ceasefire agreement in Lebanon.
