Lebanon's President says speaking to US, France to press for Israeli withdrawal

Lebanon's President Joseph Aoun said Tuesday that Beirut was in contact with Washington and Paris, which helped broker an Israel-Hezbollah truce, to press Israel to complete its withdrawal from the country after the deadline passed.

"Lebanon is continuing its diplomatic contacts with the United States and France to complete Israel's withdrawal from the remaining territories it occupied in the last war," Aoun's office said in a statement.
