U.S. President Donald Trump tells Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu he should be “more responsible” regarding Lebanon during remarks at the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Evian, France. Multiple outlets report that Trump criticizes the scale and duration of Israel’s military campaign against Hezbollah, saying it has continued for too long and has led to excessive civilian casualties. Trump’s comments are also reported as including a suggestion that Hezbollah could be confronted by Syria rather than through continued Israeli operations. The outlets describe Trump as framing his position as a call to reduce harm to civilians and adjust Israel’s approach. The reporting is consistent in placing the comments at the G7 and attributing both the “more responsible” message and the idea involving Syria’s role to Trump. Other details of how Lebanon and regional actors respond are not included in the provided summaries. The story reflects Trump’s public intervention into the Israel-Hezbollah-Lebanon security issue while world leaders meet at the G7.
