Efforts to achieve a ceasefire in Lebanon have intensified over the past few hours, as confirmed by Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati’s office. The office stated that ongoing communication between the United States and France is aimed at reviving a ceasefire proposal between Hezbollah and Israel.
During the UN General Assembly last month, US President Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron put forward a 21-day ceasefire proposal. However, three days after the proposal, Israel's assassination of Hezbollah’s leader Hassan Nasrallah and subsequent intensive attacks on the group disrupted the peace talks.
