Will there be a Eid al-Fitr truce in Lebanon?

President Joseph Aoun has proposed a four-pronged initiative that would begin with a truce leading to direct negotiations, either in Cyprus or Paris, under American auspices, Lebanese journalist Salem Zahran said Saturday in a post on X.

According to Zahran, the initiative is being seriously considered by the American side, with the Lebanese delegation to be headed by Simon Karam and including technical and legal teams.

He indicated that discussions are currently underway regarding the possibility of declaring a truce during Eid al-Fitr, coinciding with the start of negotiations. However, a final decision has not yet been reached, according to sources from multiple parties.
