Washington has informed Israel that the ceasefire with Lebanon will remain in place regardless of any developments with Iran, Israel's Channel 12 said on Monday.
A Lebanese ministerial source meanwhile told Asharq al-Awsat newspaper that the U.S. administration is preparing for the third preparatory meeting between Lebanese Ambassador to U.S. Nada Hamadeh Moawad and her Israeli counterpart Yechiel Leiter, intended to start direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel.
The ministerial source pointed out that "Washington is doing its best to host the third meeting this week, maybe on Thursday."
