Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated Israel's military will maintain a security zone in southern Lebanon, occupying up to 10km from the border. This comes after a US-Iran deal to end Middle East wars, though Israel and Hezbollah are not parties to it.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday that Israel’s military will stay in southern Lebanon, where it has occupied up to 10km (6 miles) from the border.
The remarks were his first comment since the United States and Iran signed an agreement to end the Middle East war on all fronts, including in Lebanon, where Israel has been fighting the militant Hezbollah group.
It was unclear what that US-Iran deal means in practice. Israel and Hezbollah are not parties to the agreement.
Netanyahu said Israel must “maintain a security zone in southern Lebanon, and it requires that we must not leave there as long as Israel’s security needs require it”.
He has made similar comments in the past about Israel’s refusal to withdraw from southern Lebanon.
For its part, Hezbollah has said that it was committed to resisting Israel. Continued fighting between the two sides could derail the deal.
