Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has responded to the Lebanese Cabinet’s plan for Hezbollah’s disarmament by 2025, stating that Israel will reciprocate by withdrawing its troops. Netanyahu confirmed that if Lebanon proceeds with disarming Hezbollah, Israel will subsequently reduce its military presence in southern Lebanon. The framework for this potential withdrawal comes after a ceasefire, mediated by the United States, ended the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in November. The Lebanese government is under pressure to disarm the group, which recently fought a 14-month war with Israel.
