Israel-Lebanon talks set for Washington

A Lebanese official told Nidaa Al-Watan that any ceasefire agreement with Israel will be conditional and must result from negotiations in Washington. U.S. preparations continue for another meeting between Lebanon and Israel, which could take place in Washington. This follows earlier reports that direct negotiations between the two countries may be held in Washington as early as next week. The development comes amid ongoing tensions and recent clashes between Israeli forces and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon.
