Israel, Lebanon and the United States have signed a trilateral framework agreement aimed at paving the way for peace after decades of conflict. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called the agreement "the beginning of the beginning", while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would maintain a security zone in southern Lebanon until Hezbollah is disarmed.
But Hezbollah has already rejected key elements of the agreement, with one senior lawmaker warning that attempts to impose the deal could lead to civil war.

really lead to lasting peace. For more news go to Follow DW on social media ► ►TikTok ► ► Für Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie Subscribe
