Israeli Cabinet Discusses Ceasefire Proposal With Hezbollah Tomorrow

JAKARTA - The Israeli Cabinet will convene on Tuesday to agree to a ceasefire agreement in Lebanon. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is said to have principledly accepted the ceasefire, but is still working on terms.

Senior Israeli officials told Reuters his cabinet would hold a meeting to discuss a deal that could be reached in the coming days, reported by Reuters, Monday, November 25.

The American news site, Axios, previously reported that Israel and Lebanon had agreed to an agreement requirement to end the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict.

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly agreed to a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah "in principle".

Citing a source, CNN reports Israel is still hesitant about some details of the agreement, which is expected to be submitted to the Lebanese government on Monday.

Details of these and other details are still being negotiated and various sources emphasize the agreement will not be final until all issues are resolved.

The ceasefire agreement also needs to be approved by the Israeli cabinet, but this has not happened.

Sources familiar with the negotiations said the negotiations appeared to be moving positively towards an agreement, but acknowledged that when Israel and Hezbollah continued to exchange fire, one mistake could thwart negotiations.

United States envoy Amos Hochstein said in Beirut last week the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon was within our reach, but in the end it was the decision of the parties.

Amos met with Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati and MP Nabih Berri, Hezbollah's interlocutor at the talks and said there had been constructive discussions and it was great to narrow the gap.

"We have a real chance to end the conflict," he continued last week.

The US envoy departed from Lebanon to Israel on Wednesday to try to complete negotiations.

The US-backed proposal aims to achieve a 60-day cessation of hostilities which is expected to form the basis for a lasting ceasefire.
