Lebanon ceasefire renewed after 24-hour Israel-Hezbollah flare-up amid stalled US-Iran talks
Israel and Hezbollah renewed a fragile ceasefire in Lebanon after 24 hours of intense fighting that killed four Israeli soldiers and left dozens dead in Lebanon, with Israeli airstrikes targeting Hezbollah positions in the south and Bekaa valley. The flare-up coincided with renewed US-Iran diplomacy under a memorandum of understanding that creates a 60‑day window for a broader settlement, though talks were canceled as violence escalated. Iran warned of a decisive response, underscoring the fragility of any long-term agreement amid regional tensions and domestic political pressures on Netanyahu.
