US special envoy Amos Hochstein arrives in Beirut to meet Lebanon’s prime minister and Hezbollah-allied parliament speaker Nabih Berri, as the Israel-Hezbollah all-out war neared the one-month mark.

Before meeting Lebanon’s prime minister, Hochstein arrived at the Beirut residence of Berri, who is tasked with negotiating on behalf of Hezbollah amid diplomatic efforts to end the war.

Ahead of Hochstein’s visit, Israel reportedly handed the United States a document last week with its conditions for a diplomatic solution to end the war in Lebanon.
