The United States will host a new round of talks between Israel and Lebanon in Washington next week, aiming to resolve a long-standing maritime border dispute. This announcement follows recent statements from both Hezbollah and Israel asserting a new ceasefire has been achieved. The ceasefire is reportedly linked to a US-Iran memorandum intended to de-escalate regional tensions and end ongoing conflict. Details of the memorandum and the specifics of the ceasefire remain limited. The upcoming negotiations will focus on delineating the maritime boundary between the two countries, a key point of contention regarding offshore energy resources. This development signals a potential shift towards diplomatic resolution after years of hostility and intermittent clashes. The US is playing a central role in mediating the situation and fostering dialogue between the parties.
