A ceasefire deal between Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah is reportedly very close, according to a regional source. The death toll in Lebanon has surpassed 3,000 since mid-September due to an uptick in Israeli attacks, highlighting the urgent need for a ceasefire agreement.
Although the deal is said to be closer than ever, it has not been finalized yet. US and Israeli officials have indicated that no green light has been given to mediators. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's spokesperson mentioned that while progress is being made, there are still some issues to address.
