Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said today that the Israeli military will remain in Lebanon because Hezbollah has not been disarmed and continues to pose a threat.

Katz said the Israeli military is preparing for a “prolonged presence” in Lebanon and will not withdraw from the security zone until Hezbollah is disarmed and the threat he says the group poses throughout Lebanon is eliminated. “I have instructed the Israeli military to prepare for a prolonged presence in the area, with the aim of protecting combat forces and communities until this goal is fully achieved,” Katz said, according to Reuters.

The statement comes as Israel’s position on Gaza also remains unchanged. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that the IDF will not withdraw from Gaza until Hamas is disarmed. Netanyahu also opposed Donald Trump’s 15-point plan for Gaza, insisting that Hamas must be fully disarmed before Israeli forces withdraw.

Trump announced on July 30 that an agreement had been reached on the complete disarmament of Hamas, paving the way for Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza and the deployment of an international stabilization force.

Early September is expected to bring a new attempt to end the fighting and tensions that have continued for months in Lebanese territory, as Israel and Lebanon return to the negotiating table.

According to reports, the new round of negotiations will take place in Rome, with the United States of America acting as mediator between the two sides. The US State Department confirmed that the meeting will be held in the Italian capital.

The talks are expected to focus on the security situation in Lebanon and ending the attacks. Israeli troops have carried out sporadic strikes in Lebanon targeting Hezbollah, the militant group backed by Iran.

The negotiations are expected to focus on ways to ease tensions and create conditions for a more lasting cessation of hostilities. The US involvement as a direct mediator is intended to facilitate communication between Israel and Lebanon.

According to information published by international media, the announcement of the agreement is considered a matter of hours. The official announcement, and possibly the signing of the document as well, is expected to take place today in the American capital.

Sources indicate that the Israeli and Lebanese delegations have held intensive negotiations over the past four days, with the aim of reaching an agreement that would put an end to the latest escalation of the conflict.

So far, neither side has made an official announcement about the content of the agreement, while details are expected to be made public after its announcement.

Në një moment gjatë ndeshjes, mbrojtësi i Lebanonit, Khalil Khamis, ka bërë një ndërhyrje të keqe duke i vendosur takat në fytyrë lojtarit rival, Ëeijun Dai. Në çdo vend të botës do të akordohej kartoni i kuq, por në këtë rast, nuk është akorduar as faull.

Loja duhej të vazhdonte, ndërsa pavarësisht se ndeshja zhvillohej me sistemin VAR, Khalil Khamis nuk është ndëshkuar as me kartonin e verdhë, duke u përzgjedhur në fund si një prej lojtarëve më të mirë të ndeshjes. /Sport Ekspres/
