Lebanon Seeks Iranian Aid for Cease-Fire

News summary

Lebanon's caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati has sought Iran's assistance in securing a cease-fire in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, amidst increasing Israeli airstrikes and rising casualties in Lebanon. U.S. Ambassador Lisa Johnson has delivered a cease-fire draft proposal to Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, which suggests Hezbollah withdraw its fighters north of the Litani River, a move backed by President-elect Donald Trump. Iran's adviser, Ali Larijani, stated that Iran would support any decision made by Lebanon while reaffirming support for Hezbollah. Despite ongoing diplomatic efforts, tensions remain high as Israel continues its military offensive. Key conditions for Hezbollah include the cessation of Israeli aggression and the protection of Lebanese sovereignty, while Israel insists on maintaining the right to target Hezbollah even after a cease-fire is reached. The situation remains fluid, with U.S. mediation efforts ongoing as both sides navigate the complexities of the proposed agreement.
