The Iran-backed Lebanese armed group has traded regular cross-border fire with Israeli forces.
JERUSALEM – Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Gallant told a visiting US envoy on Monday that prospects were dimming for a halt to nearly a year of fighting with Hamas ally Hezbollah in Lebanon.
He "emphasised that the possibility for an agreement is running out as Hezbollah continues to 'tie itself' to Hamas, and refuses to end the conflict," the statement said. While repeated rounds of talks mediated by the United States, Qatar and Egypt have sought a truce in Gaza, there have been no signs of progress in diplomacy aimed at halting the fighting between Hezbollah and Israel.
Israel and Hezbollah fought a month-long war in the summer of 2006 that killed more than 1,200 people in Lebanon, mostly civilians, as well as 160 Israelis, most of them soldiers. While Gallant, a former general, remains grimly committed to destroying Hamas over its October 7 attack, he has clashed with Netanyahu on the issue of Gaza's post-war governance and pressed the prime minister to declare a policy.
Israeli media last month quoted Gallant as telling a parliamentary committee that a deal to release hostages held in Gaza "is stalling... in part because of Israel", prompting Netanyahu's office to accuse Gallant of adopting an "anti-Israel narrative".
