Lebanese President Joseph Aoun proposed direct negotiations with Israel to secure a permanent ceasefire and border stability.The initiative follows significant military escalation, with Israeli strikes across Lebanon killing 400 people and displacing 500,000 residents.Lebanese authorities have declared the military activities of Hezbollah illegal while simultaneously seeking international assistance to disarm the organization.Despite diplomatic outreach to the
EU and
France,
Israel maintains its commitment to continue targeting Hezbollah until the group is neutralized.
