Lebanese official says Lebanon, Israel on verge of border deal
Lebanon and Israel are nearing an agreement over the demarcation of their maritime border, an official Lebanese source said.
“We are very close to reaching an agreement over the demarcation of the sea border with Israel,” the source told Russia’s Sputnik news agency.
“We have been informed that the answer that U.S. mediator Amos Hochstein will carry from the Israeli side in response to the Lebanese proposal is positive, and he will soon return to Beirut,” the source added.
“The month of September will witness the solution for the border demarcation file,” the source went on to say.
