The Kan broadcaster reports that Israel has in principle signed off on a US-backed ceasefire with Hezbollah in Lebanon and Prime Minister Benjamin is now working on how to present it to the public — assuming it is approved by the Iran-backed terror group.
The aim is to present the truce not as a “compromise” but as beneficial to Israel, Kan reports.
The ceasefire allows for Israel to retain the right to carry out military operations on the Lebanon-Syria border, the report adds.
Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem said last week that the terror group had reviewed the truce proposal and submitted a response and that the ball was in Israel’s court.
