Hope for Truce Between Israel and Hezbollah, But No End in Sight for Gaza War

tel aviv - Israel is on the brink of potentially agreeing to a ceasefire with Hezbollah in Lebanon, while the conflict in Gaza continues with no signs of stopping.

An Israeli minister stated this week that they have never been closer to a truce in Lebanon. The details of the proposed agreement passed on by the US ambassador to Lebanon remain unclear, but it is likely similar to the UN resolution that ended the 2006 war between Hezbollah and Israel, which Hezbollah largely ignored. This would require Hezbollah to retreat behind the Litani River, about 10 kilometers from the Israeli border.

While an agreement on this issue is likely, Israel has additional demands including the disarmament of Hezbollah and the right to cross the border for military operations if needed, which Lebanon finds unacceptable as it would violate its sovereignty.

Meanwhile, the fighting continues. Israel has targeted over 300 sites in Lebanon this week, including in Baalbek and Beirut. They have also conducted multiple attacks on Syrian territory. Hezbollah continues to fire rockets at Israel, albeit at a reduced rate. Previously launching around 200 rockets per day, they are now launching less than a hundred.

Israel estimated that Hezbollah had the capacity to launch thousands of rockets daily, but likely managed to destroy a significant portion of the stockpile in the initial strikes. They believe Hezbollah now has less than 20 percent of its original arsenal left and, with weakened leadership, Hezbollah is eager for a ceasefire.

The Washington Post reported that Israel is working to achieve a ceasefire before Donald Trump takes office in two months, as a 'gift' for the new president who has reportedly approved the current American proposal. Trump has pledged to end Middle Eastern wars.

Ending the conflict in Gaza is proving to be much more challenging. Hamas demands an end to the war and Israeli military withdrawal before they release any hostages. Prime Minister Netanyahu, under pressure from coalition partners to annex parts of Gaza, refuses to agree to these terms. Critics argue that the current offensive in the north of the strip signifies preparation for annexation, with the population being displaced and infrastructure being built, indicating there are no immediate plans for Israeli withdrawal.
