Netanyahu states demands for Lebanon peace

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated Israel's core demands for a lasting peace with Lebanon, stating any agreement must include the disarmament of Hezbollah and be a sustainable 'peace through strength' arrangement. His comments come as a White House meeting with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun is scheduled within days, following the announcement of a fragile 10-day ceasefire. The demands directly conflict with Hezbollah's own conditions, which include barring Israeli freedom of movement in Lebanon. The U.S. has also called on Lebanon to curb Hezbollah attacks, highlighting the complex diplomatic landscape ahead of the planned talks.
