Lebanon-Israel ceasefire extension to include security meeting in US, LBCI sources say

During the ceasefire extension period, preparations will be made for a security meeting at the U.S. Department of War on May 29, according to LBCI sources.

The meeting is expected to address key issues, including the confinement of weapons, strengthening combat brigades within the Lebanese army, the withdrawal of Israeli forces, and the deployment of the Lebanese army.

The discussions will also focus on activating the monitoring mechanism for the ceasefire agreement, known as the “mechanism,” particularly on how to complete an independent verification process.

During the extension period, work will also continue on a declaration of intent between Lebanon and Israel. The document is not expected to be issued in the coming days and is intended to outline each side’s red lines and expectations.

LBCI sources added that efforts will continue to solidify the ceasefire agreement and ensure compliance by both Israel and Hezbollah.
