The next round of direct negotiations between Israel and Lebanon has been postponed until next month, according to Axios. The delay is attributed to several factors, including an upcoming international conference in Paris to support the Lebanese army, preparations for the UN General Assembly, and the Jewish holiday period. Despite the postponement, an American source told Axios that a meeting between the Israeli and Lebanese ambassadors in Washington is still expected in the coming period.
A spokesperson for the U.S. State Department informed MTV Lebanon that Israel and Lebanon are maintaining constructive dialogue. The spokesperson suggested that the next round of direct talks could be held in Rome soon, as part of arrangements that have been in progress for weeks.
Separately, Lebanese media reported on Tuesday evening that Israeli airstrikes targeted several locations in southern Lebanon, including the villages of Nabatieh al-Fawqa and Mansouri in the Tyre district.
