A ceasefire in Lebanon will be announced at 10 p.m. by the United States and France, according to Lebanese channel Al Jadeed.
Presidents Biden and Macron will announce the deal during the night, with the alleged agreement set to take effect at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
This comes after several days of strained last-minute negotiation, in which Israel pushed for the removal of France as guarantor of the security situation in Lebanon, citing current diplomatic tensions between France and Israel.
The deal must still pass through the war cabinet, which is expected to meet at 6 p.m. to approve the agreement in Lebanon. Netanyahu is also expected to run the ceasefire passed by the heads of the local authorities in the North.
If the cabinet approves the ceasefire agreement, it will go into effect regardless of the announcement.
