Channel 12 reports that during a meeting of top Israeli officials led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu yesterday, there was broad agreement that Israel has largely achieved its goals in the campaign against Hezbollah in Lebanon and should now seek to translate that into a deal to end the fighting.
The report says Netanyahu accepted security officials’ position that a ceasefire in Lebanon is appropriate so long as it fulfills the objective of returning northern residents safely to their homes.
