Abstract

The article focuses on the fragile ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon, brokered by US President Donald Trump, intended to enable negotiations toward a permanent peace accord between the two countries, which do not formally recognize each other. The truce followed weeks of intense conflict involving Israeli strikes against Hezbollah, an Iran-backed militant group active in Lebanon, and rocket attacks on northern Israel. While Hezbollah supporters in Beirut celebrated the ceasefire, many Israelis expressed anger and skepticism about the government's handling of the conflict. Lebanese officials, including President Joseph Aoun, emphasized the opportunity for peace and Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon, but Hezbollah remains armed and committed to opposing Israel, complicating prospects for lasting peace.
