Israel and Lebanon sign a U.S.-brokered security framework in Washington that officials describe as a first step toward peace after months of conflict involving the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio joins Israel’s ambassador, Yechiel Leiter, and Lebanon’s ambassador, Nada Hamadeh, to announce the agreement. According to the U.S. State Department, the framework lays out a process aimed at dismantling Hezbollah and enabling Lebanon to reclaim territory taken by Israeli forces during fighting against the group. The agreement does not include Hezbollah directly, and some Hezbollah officials in Lebanon warn it could raise the risk of internal instability.\n\nThe State Department says the U.S. will facilitate implementation through a newly created “Military Coordination Group for Lebanon.” The U.S. also commits $100 million in humanitarian assistance tied to the broader framework. Several reports note that detailed terms are not publicly released beyond the general objectives described by U.S. officials, while the full text is described by one outlet as released by the U.S. mediator. Reuters is not among the sources.
