Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that he wants a "real peace agreement" with Lebanon, and that peace talks with Lebanon are dependent on Hezbollah's disarmament. Talks between the two nations are set to begin on Tuesday, with the U.S. mediating. Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, stated that there was no expectation of a deal, particularly amid the ongoing war. The talks were held after 40 days of imposed war and included new topics like the Strait of Hormuz and regional issues. However, they were unable to find common ground on several key issues, including the development of nuclear technology. Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar urged the two countries to continue their ceasefire.
