Lebanon’s president says Israel hasn’t responded to his offer to negotiate

President Joseph Aoun said his proposal calls for Israel to halt its attacks on Hezbollah while international logistics support helps the Lebanese army take control of Hezbollah weapons and depots in the country’s south.

Speaking during a meeting with U.N. chief António Guterres, Aoun called for Israel and Lebanon to begin negotiations.

Israel has said Lebanon’s government isn’t serious about disarming Hezbollah, so the Israeli military must do it instead.  — AP
