AI Summary:
Israel and the Iran-aligned group agreed in November to a ceasefire mediated by France and the United States. Under the deal, Israeli forces were to withdraw from Lebanon. Israeli government spokesmen David Mencer said there have been positive movements where the Lebanese army and UNIFIL have taken the place of Hezbollah forces. Hezbollah said on Thursday that Israel has to completely withdraw from Lebanon as the 60-day period in a ceasefire deal comes to an end. “We need a total withdrawal of the Israeli army,” French President Emmanuel Macron said earlier this month. The Lebanese government has also told US mediators that Israel’s failure to withdraw on time could complicate the lebanesese army’s deployment, and this would be a blow to diplomatic efforts.
