Washington recently proposed that Jerusalem halt construction on a security barrier in a village on the Israel-Lebanon border in exchange for the removal of a Hezbollah outpost set up on the Israeli side of the Blue Line, Channel 11 reported on Monday.
In doing so, the United States was repeating a Lebanese demand made on July 10 during a Beirut meeting between Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati, Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib and UNIFIL commander Maj. Gen. Aroldo Lázaro Sáenz.
