Speaker Nabih Berri revealed Monday that a phased, 60-day Israeli withdrawal from south Lebanon is mentioned in the latest peace deal between Iran and the U.S., whose details are yet to be officially disclosed.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday hinted that he wants to put an end to the Israel-Hezbollah conflict.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel's forces would remain in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria "for as long as necessary," hours after a deal was announced between Iran and the U.S. to end the Middle East war.

Hezbollah said on Monday it had repelled an Israeli force that was trying to "advance" in southern Lebanon, despite the U.S.-Iran agreement to end the Middle East war on all fronts including in Lebanon.

The Iran-backed group said the attack came in response to Israel's violation of the ceasefire on Monday.

President Joseph Aoun on Monday welcomed the announced U.S.-Iran deal to end the Middle East war during a call from Tehran's top diplomat and foreign minister Abbas Araghchi, the Lebanese presidency said in a statement.

The Lebanese leader said he hoped the agreement would be a "positive step towards reducing tensions and opening the door to diplomatic solutions," while Araghchi emphasized "the importance of respecting Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity by all parties," the statement said.

MP Hussein al-Hajj Hassan on Monday said that Hezbollah and Speaker Nabih Berri have been informed by Iran that Israeli withdrawal is included within the "framework of the agreement" with the U.S. and that "its details will be discussed soon."

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam hoped Monday that the ceasefire agreement reached by the U.S. and Iran will succeed in "ending this war and halting the killing, destruction, displacement and all the other tragedies and suffering inflicted upon the Lebanese people."

Hezbollah thanked its backer Iran on Monday for insisting that Lebanon, where Israel and the militants have been at war, be included in the deal to end the Middle East conflict.

"Hezbollah expresses its profound gratitude" to Iran's leaders, forces and people "for their steadfast support of Lebanon, its people and its resistance, and for their insistence that Lebanon be included in any understanding leading to the cessation of war", the group said in a statement.

A Hezbollah official told Reuters ​on Monday that ‌the group has not carried out any ​operations since the ​Iran-U.S. deal was announced ⁠and that its ​position on the ceasefire ​was linked to Israel's adherence to it.

An Israeli drone targeted Monday a car in the southern town of Kfartebnit near the Israeli-designated "Yellow Line", where Israeli troops remain despite the announcement of a U.S.-Iran deal.

The strike killed the car's driver. Another drone strike on a car earlier in the day had wounded several people in the same town.
