US President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday night that Israel and Lebanon would hold direct talks on Thursday, adding that "it has been a long time since the two leaders have spoken."
"Trying to get a little breathing room between Israel and Lebanon. It has been a long time since the two leaders have spoken, like 34 years. It will happen tomorrow. Nice!" Trump posted on Truth Social.
The meeting would take place after the Security Cabinet met to discuss the ceasefire in Lebanon, without agreeing on how to implement the halt to fighting.
This is a developing story.
